    same reply as earlier hover your heli in the flight path of a circle. In other words, do it very slowly.

    It will seem absurdly difficult at first. But then it's a rather small step to forwards / backwards circles, nose-in and tail-in funnels.

      Start practising slow pirouettes (about 10 seconds per turn) in place - it may take about a month of every day practise to get these clean, but it's worth every minute. Circles will be easy after this, both backwards and forward.

        What you mean, flight in circle with pirouette every 10 second?

          No, stationary slow pirouettes.

          This will build your ability to make minor corrections in any position, but they must be slow.

          ... and yes, it is something I should be doing as well

              10 seconds or more per pirouette, otherwise they don't make any sense.

                yes, very slow
                in the sim, use the trim button on rudder to set a fixed piro rate. Then leave the rudder alone and keep it in place...
