| For those wishing to do this quick and dirty way, follow below steps.
This is by no means a proper way to do it. But it will at least give you a taste of what it feels like. I did it this way prior to learning it properly.
Get a 90 size heli on the sim as it is less twitch.
I call this maneuver Fake Piro-Flip
1. From a tail in hover high, apply full left rudder. Adjust rudder rate if it is faster than 360deg per sec.
2. Do about 3 pirouettes and try to count every time the tail comes back to you. One.. Two... Three.
3. On next tail-in positon, start applying full forward cyclic and start to stir clockwise at the same rate as the tail.
4. For first few tries make sure your pull the pitch to zero pitch so the heli will do slow descent.
* As long as you keep the pitch at zero, the heli will not wonder but fall down slowly.
5. After few tries and being comfortable with the rate of drop at zero pitch, try to mix in little pos pitch at most upright position and neg pit at most inverted position. The amount of pitch should be about same as hovering pitch upright and negative. This will slow down the descent and hold the altitude.
* If it wonders, then you are applying the pitch at wrong timing.
I'll try to post a G3 video when I can make one.
