Why is piloting a helicopter considered more challenging, despite not requiring much space to take off and land and being able to stabilize in the air and stand still?

Just to point out an error in your phrasing, the term aircraft means any vehicle that floats or flies in the air. Helicopters, blimps, and airplanes are all aircraft.

A better way to phrase your question is why are helicopters harder to fly than airplanes.
