Still puzzled how the link between steering inputs and aircraft movements became purely haphazard the moment controls were handed to the person in the right seat but immediately turned predictable, smooth and controlled as soon as the guy in the left seat sorted out the impending mess.
A helicopter just knows the capabilities of the person on the controls, and knows when it can have a bit of fun and when it can't.
