Default Hovering

I've been into helis for about 8 months and am able to do some mild 3D; flips, rolls, inverted hovering, etc. I got myself a Parkzone UM T-28 Trojan a few months ago to try out planks, and I've had a good time throwing it around, so I just got an Eflite UMX Extra 300 3D. It's a lot more fun!

I've seen a video on YouTube of someone effortlessly hovering one, or "hangin' on the prop", right in their living room. I feel like I could too if I could somehow swap the aileron and rudder channels, which would make it more like hovering a heli.

Is there anyway this can be achieved? Maybe with mixes and dual rates or something? I'm using a mode-2 Spektrum DX8.
