Its easy to get a heli into an orientation you arent familiar with when you are learning. If you get familiar with all the orientations then you wont panic. A great tool on the sim is to set the rudder trim full right or left (do both) and try to keep it still as it piros, then try to fly it around, then reverse the rudder trim, this is good for learning inverted orientations as well. One of the reasons I havent crashed (yet) while learning piro flips is no matter what orientation the helicopter stops at, whether upright or inverted, nose in or tail in, I've practiced it and I dont panic, I dont have to think, my fingers take over, thats what you are after, control in any attitude without having to think.
