Questions About Sims and the FPV RC3

I bought the controller and installed Steam/Lift Off before purchasing a FPV Drone. This seems like it is very hard. I am hoping things get better in the sim. Two questions I have: are the sticks always very sensitive or is there a way to adjust rates so they aren't as sensitive? Do most fly FPV "pinching" the sticks or thumbs on top of the sticks? Help an old guy out. I just want to fly around and have a little fun.
