Interesting Observation leftside/ right side hovering

[Moores Family]

Hi Folks
I've just discovered something interesting-

All my helis so far have been clockwise rotation, right leaning. I've
had to work a lot harder to be comfortable left side in than right.

Enter the Skyfox, a cack hand rotation left leaning heli. I find I'm
more comfortable left side in with this one...

'Handedness' it seems isn't a function of being right or left handed
(I'm right handed), possibly it's to do with the way the heli leans?

Just an observation.

I had the same problem with right leaning Shuttle and Raptor. I
finally realized that I was over compensating on the left side
hovering below eye level. I was trying to take the lean out so that
it looked more like the right side with a nice visible rotor disk.
When you do that it has a strong tendency to eat your knee caps. I
found that I needed to NOT focus on the disk so much and let it lean
away from me in the left side view.
