MG,

All (that I can think of) twist grip throttles roll "away" from the pilot, which would normally be an easier action of the wrist, allowing the outside of your hand to move down as the collective comes up, and vice versa. Bell 212, 206, 205, Hughes 500, Hiller 12E, R22 all spring to mind as operating that way.
