Flying inverted

My little brain tells me flying inverted for longer than a brief period in a Helicopter is not possible due to the rotors hitting the tailboom and the problem of the rotors producing lift the wrong way to keep said helicopter flying for long, but since the Lynx has got such rigid rotor's I am not 100% sure, could someone help me out and confirm my simple suspicion?
