Yes, I have towed behind Roger Buis flying a Schweizer
helicopter many times at airshows. Roger flies Otto,
the airshow helicopter. We call the helicopter tow
the 'Ot-Tow'. He hovers in for the rope hookup, hover
taxis backwards until the rope is tight, and begins
pulling sideways! No need for a mirror to see the
rudder waggle, since he's looking right at me.

Interesting note, there is no special pilot endorsement
required to helicopter tow. If you are a current tow
pilot with a helicopter rating, you're good to go.
(Requirements for the aircraft are another issue.)
