Challenging Hover Settings

[DaveScott]

After a million hours on Phoenix I'm managing to produce a reasonable effort with hovering. I'd like to change my settings to something more challenging. What should I change? Or should I stay as I am? Thank you.

Change the hover stability.
Edit model, main rotor, flybar, hover stability

Thanks for your prompt reply!
Is 75% a good starting point?

Assuming you're at 100%, I'd drop maybe 10% at a time until you're OK with the feel.

Thanks - I tried 75% but that was a little ambitious, I'm now at 90%.

Makes it challenging, doesn't it?

Challenging without being too easy! Thanks for your advice.

You can also add some winds and gusts like in the real world.

OK. Together with the settings advised by jbobb1, what do you suggest in terms of wind and gusts?

Depends on what you want to simulate. Just go into Flying site - Weather - Change and create a custom profile or try out some of the preset ones instead of calm.
