My oppinion would be: that while it May, or May
Not work (depending on the bearings in it), The
MAIN consideration, tho, as I see it would be
WATER in the Control Cable connections, when a
Rotor is upside down (obviously NOT a factor ,when
mounted under a cover, roof, ect)! Probably will
work fine!
just DONT try this if EXPOSED to the Weather! Jim

Rotors are made for use on tall towers. There quickly reaches a point
in which rain rises as well as falls. Rotors have to be made water
safe from any angle so that shouldn't be an issue.
