The Bell 47 makes an good example as the early versions did not have the controllable elevator at the back. Note the use of the word elevator not stabiliser. This lifted the tail and therefore increased the tilt of the mast giving a higher forward speed.

The elevator was coupled to the fore and aft cyclic system.
