It might be a good idea to work through the tutorials over at Hoversafe http://members.shaw.ca/hoversafe/Hoversafe.htm first, they'll help turn you into a fine chopper pilot. MP helicopters is tricky if you don't know what you're doing ;)

never pull power all the way to idle to slow down. You have to constantly manage your cyclic and collective to keep the helicopter in the same spot. Hand on at all times, with small adjustments are what make helicopters fly smoothly.

well i keep the aircraft flying off 3000-4000 FT and when i reduce the helicopter power to about 40-50% (which i did jus now) the helicopter jus keep flying ahead but i tried to pull up a bit to lose some power and then level off again,then i tried to move my joystick Very SLIGHTLY but then the aircraft lose its controll and spin outs

Fact:

More Sim V Pilots die in Helicopters than Cessna 152's....

...trust me...;)...!

F....All my flying devices have to be fitted with wings, (like a Bird), with a Fan at the pointy-end...
....not a Fan on top, and devoid of wings!...;)...!

You may want to also ask at www.hovercontrol.com

They have online lessons available, and can give you many pointers on the proper procedures.
