222 Collective

At FSI Bell 430 school I quickly adapted to the collective and throttle grip position. I did have a problem when switching seats and having to perform emergency throttle control on the CP collective. It seemed that the CP stick was very short and I had a hard time twisting the grip. Anyway, coming from mostly a Sikorsky background, I found the 430 collective easy to use and controls easy to operate.
