OK, so I had this really stupid urge to get the fixed-pitch Hummingbird to go inverted I had the right idea with the setup, but it just wasn't going to happen Here's a link to that thread: Thread - Inverted Hover - Please talk me out of this   Here the blades are swapped and I've reversed the motor polatity This the the reversed Tail Rotor I had to strap it in place Thr Gyro needed to be flipped since the rotor directions are now reversed I'm sure you can guess how well this worked!
