i kinda started hovering nose-in and did 180s to get tail in. Got fed up with landing and letting it rotate back to nose in on the training carriage so i did started going in through hovered 180s. The difficult bit i found is from tail-in to nose-in, the last half of the piro is just excecuting my recovery plan without giving it any collective.

It has to be said that i have become an absolute sim addict. 1hr every day and often much more if i have nothing to do. I find the skills transfer really well to the real world, the amount i have to move the sticks may be different from real life, but the directions are identical
