Throttle + pitch curves
Setup your normal mode so that 0 pitch is around half stick. You do not need to have significant –ve pitch below half stick (although a degree or two helps keep it planted as you spool up). Because you will learn to use the top half of the throttle lever movement for hover/FF/FFF. A normal pitch curve like -1 -0.5 0 5 10 degrees with a throttle curve 0 50 90 90 90 or whatever value 90 needs to be to get the headspeed right.

For takeoff you power up, move the throttle lever to half stick and wait for the head to come up to speed. Heli hould just sit as there is no +ve pitch. Then you fly using the top of the lever movement. Your first Idle up can use the exact same pitch curve, just change the throttle curve to be 90 90 90 90 90. This will give you access to a little –ve (nice in windy conditions) but maintain the headspeed. As you progress you add a little more –ve to Idle up 1. For example -4 2 0 5 10. Good enough for loops and rolls. Plenty of –ve for FF/FFF in wind. And introduce an Idle up 2. For example -10 -5 0 5 10 this is for 3D flying. Inverted hover, tic tocs etc.
