This was with V2 helicopters at Archerfield. The pilot took off and we flew East towards the bay. After a short while he gave me control of the "cyclic" which is the stick you can see that I am holding. This controls what direction we travel in. He kept control of the collective (up and down & trottle) and the pedals (Tail rotor/ steering) and gradually during the flight, he handed them over as well. It is uber sensitive and I am sure he kept his hands on them just in case. I was too busy trying to concentrate on not doing a loop the loop to really worry too much about what he was doing. I think I need a bit more practice.
