Im not sure if your already doing this but one of the little things that help me when I get chopped is the yaw. When I feel that nose swing the collective comes down and I establish a glide. That would especially help in the full power climb, with all that torque. We should also probably be most alert during our climb out anyways, thats when we would be in the most trouble if anything went wrong. As for the flare and final touchdown, I would be very happy if I just survived. Just a thought.

P.S. I only have about 70hrs so I am not claiming to be the final authority on this. Never even done a full down yet.
