Simon, there probably is some amount of roll-yaw cross coupling in the hover, but size and magnitude would depend on type. However, I would be surprised if it's ever much of a concern because you don't normally need large roll angles or roll rates when hovering (there are a few exceptions). What is a concern is the yaw due to the lateral velocity that a roll angle will eventually generate.
