Actually you do not need any negative pitch to do an inside loop, just a lot of forward speed.

BUT, If you are getting started into aerobatics you should have the heli set up on idle up with a v curve for the throttle and the pitch set to +10/-10.

If you don't know how to do that we can help.

Yeah I've done scary loops in normal mode before. I wouldn't recommend it, set it up like Jeff said.

Do them really high up with lots of forward speed! It would be a good idea to set up a v curve on a second flight mode so you don't reduce your throttle while giving it negative pitch.
