Negative pitch on helicopters missing?! Heli glide ratio like sail plane

ISSUE DESCRIPTION

Description of the issue:
All helicopters seems to blow dust even on flat pitch, collective fully down. Probably linked to same problem is that all helicopters will glide like a sailplane when lowering the collective, it is almost hard to get back down to earth again, never experienced that IRL when flying helicopters…

Helicopters i have worked on IRL are rigged to a negative blade pitch when collective fully down, typical -2 to -4 degrees.
