Yes, RBS is pretty much self-correcting and you would have to force it to stay in the condition.

However, overreacting can make matters worse - if you offload too much collective during recovery, the pitch-up of the stall creates a very powerful flare effect due to the high speed and the Nr will rapidly increase. I know someone who oversped the head on a Wessex in exactly this way.
