Here is Alan Szabo Jr. flying the Align 150 in a small space showing the stability of the helicopter. What I kept looking at was his fingers though. Watch how many corrections he was having to make. He is making this thing look about twice as stable as it really is. Guess that is what you can do when you are a world class helicopter pilot lol.

They are twitchy, especially (for me) on the sensitivity of the collective pitch. Expo and D/R can be used on cyclic and rudder to tame these things, but it takes a lot of tweaking, or very steady and accurate hands, to get the collective response smooth like this. Using the DX9 (or DX8 for that matter) would probably help a lot since you can use a 7 point curve (with user defined mapping points) to smooth it out and inject expo like mapping around your normal hover pitch locations.
