@Fullscreen i can get where you are coming from. They are much better than you think if in doubt when flying just let go of the sticks and it will hover letting you get your breath back then start again.
Thanks @Fullscreen, much appreciated. Definitely agree with @Gham, if you make sure you do your pre-flight checks and remember you can trust it to hover if you just let go of the sticks it isn’t so stressful!
I would also say give plenty of time to flying without the distraction of trying to film anything, just develop the muscle memory so you don’t have to think so much about how the drone will respond when you move the sticks…
@The_Stuffitect i still get the gimbal up and down the wrong way on the wheel when taking a video and the yaw still go the wrong way. I am getting better I can fly forwards to me now not in reverse as I used to.
@Gham I was doing that a lot too, for some reason I found the direction of the wheel to be the opposite to what I would expect. What I do now is I only think about one half of the wheel (e.g. which edge of the wheel is going up when the camera is going up). This has helped a lot!
It’s the gimbal up/down that I get wrong all the time!

That brilliant!
I have been trying it this morning, and that works.
I just think about the left hand edge of the gimbal wheel … if that’s going up, the gimbal is going up.
Until this point, it was a 50/50 chance I would get it right.
Amazing how sometimes simple things help!
Ah good, as soon as I started thinking about it that way it helped me, so I’m glad it helped someone else (and that it wasn’t just me that gets confused). It would be easier to coordinate if they would mount the wheel at 90 degrees so up was up and down was down, like they do on the Yuneec Typhoon

That is a good shout. I struggled with that too. I came up with this:
“Keep it upright”
to steer the ageing brain
And no innuendo please !
Happy flying
I guess the other way to do it is forget about the wheel altogether and just use your finger on the screen of the controller to move the gimbal up and down. It can be easier to get smoother movements that way anyway
I had forgotten you could do that … something else for me to try out 
Have a look at Casey Feris on YouTube, his vids are well explained and he’s quite camp/funny to boot.
Have a look at how you set your workflow, what project settings your mainly going to use - proxy media? Timeline resolution, FPS, rendering and what Hdd your going to use etc, get them right in the first place, it might seem a little over the top for what your doing now, but once you’ve gotten into Resolve, and started using more effects, it’ll make it a lot easier and smoother on you computer…and you! Specially if your working with H.265 and 4k. Davinci is great once you get going with it👍.
Thanks for the tip I’ll have a look! I’ve been using proxy media as my laptop (Asus Zenbook Duo) while powerful enough in general, would struggle with 4K, especially with fusion effects on top. I’m tempted to pay for the Studio version though, a lot of the best effects/filters are hidden behind the paywall and it’s really reasonable for a one-time fee on such a powerful piece of software (especially compared to the Adobe equivalent!)
@The_Stuffitect I tried your suggestion today and it is so straightforward. I moved the gimbal in the correct direction every time
