how long does it actually take to get decent at this

been flying my holy stone for maybe two weeks now and i feel like im not really getting better? like i can take off and land without crashing which i guess is something but turning and trying to fly toward myself is still really confusing. someone at the park told me to just keep practicing but i feel like im practicing the wrong things or something. is there like a progression people usually follow or do you just kind of figure it out as you go. also im flying in atti mode or sport mode sometimes by accident i think, not totally sure how those are different from regular mode

two weeks is nothing honestly, it took me probably a month and a half before flying toward myself felt natural and even then i had to think about it. the thing that helped me most was picking a fixed point on the ground and just doing slow circles around it, like figure eights and stuff. sounds boring but it trains your brain to deal with the orientation changing constantly. also definitely figure out what mode youre in before you fly, atti mode means theres no gps hold so the drone wont stay in place on its own and if youre not ready for that it can get away from you fast

honestly the orientation thing just clicks one day, hard to explain it. and two weeks is not very long at all. i wouldnt worry too much about sport mode on a holy stone though, its not really the same as sport mode on like a DJI, probably just a bit faster response. just keep it in normal/gps mode for now until youre more comfortable
