    Helicopter CONTROLS

    Well as I fly helicopters, You also must understand when at speed you do not use your rudder pedals for turning, only your cyclic, rudder pedals are for planes and used to coordinate your turn, helicopter pedals are anti torque, and used only to offset the spinning of your rotor blades, when at speed the tail works much like the feathers on a arrow and keep it straight. The anti-torque pedals speed up and slow down the tail whan hovering. It does depict ground effect very well. So the using your pedals at speed in a helo is just not done for flying or turning you actually just turn the stick right a little and pull back, use the pedal if you want to fly sideways while turning.
