Default Flying backwards

Does anyone have advice about flying the heli tail first or backwards. I've been thinking about stick movements and its very different from normal forward flight. For example, when flying nose in and then going away from yourself and wanting to go to your right, you must give left stick- right to point the tail to the right, and right stick- to the left and up, to bank and then to pull the tail up (or push the nose down). I'm an old airplane flyer and have never experienced backward flight.

Thanks.
