Am I the only one who doesn't care or take any notice of direction of travel of MR ? I regularly jump into both types and most of the time would have to think which way they go
I find that truly amazing.
I'd expect that someone with say +1000h in a left turning Bell could not have prevented his brain to internalize certain pedal action when adding pitch.
I'd have guessed that at that experience level one would not pull pitch and wait to see and learn from looking out of the cockpit what kind of ac he is sitting in today.
Last time I was hovering I was truly astonished that my feet "did the right thing" by themselves, w/o waiting for the onset of yaw and reacting afterwards,
as I definitely did during early training. I'm not sure what would happen if I'd jump into an EC120 the next day.

How do you do that? Does your brain switch from EC mode to Bell mode by deducting rotor direction from peripheral cockpit panel appearance?
