Default How do you do a pirouetting loop ?

Very funny from your profile I think you know how to do it..
but here goes

1st you need to be able to fly sideways and 90 deg to the flight path. Next as with a normal loop enter level and (depending on direction) move the ail to left or right and apply collective as the heli reaches inverted move col to a neg +/- 3 deg as you follow over the back side start to add collective til you end up level .

Pointers , don't apply large movement to ail ,you may need to correct the pitch through out the loop.
