Totally agree with Uplinker, less is definitely more when it comes to handflying an Airbus. Small, gentle nudges is all you need 99% of the time.

LOOK OUTSIDE! Small input, stop the input, check the change in pitch attitude and aim point. Scan inside to see new pitch attitude, speed trend, VSI, and power setting. Get the brain cells working on why you deviated and what impact, and trend, the new input had. Consider any new adjustments based off of what you learned from this cycle of scanning and flying.

Flying is easy, just like golf. Ever see the commercial about Tiger Woods talking about how easy it is to hit a golf ball? "Just hit it."

It's the details that make the better pilot.
