Default FMS sim and ThreeDee practice

Didn't know where else to post this. Did you know you can actally hover inverted with the blades below the ground in the FMS Sim? Its great for working on orientation practice. Post pics with your other sims and suggestions.

Thanks.

Yeah, I flipped it over. Try hovering it inverted, then hit the "print screen" button while flying inverted. Notice the blades are BELOW the runway. You can't see them.

Mine is always in Idle up. Lots of RPM in the blades. Takes throttle above 50% to hover. Once you flip it over, go to less than 50% throttle for inverted lift.
