As Rotordent said, she runs on (power off auto) very well due to excellent directional stability provided by the large Airbus-like tailfin. The sturdy skids gives a lot of confidence as compared to the skinny tubes of the R44. Even without high-inertia MR blades, rrpm does not decay rapidly and the entire experience is not unlike the B206.

I take it when Rotordent said aft cyclic, it's just a few degrees - that's all you'll need.
