Just watch Aaron Knight's recent YouTube video! No inverted fuel/oil, but all the other positive G stuff you'd want to do.

My 3300 is set up for aerobatics with a safety feature...while inverted the fuel system stops the engine before the lack of inverted oil capability seizes the engine. Has worked perfectly so far...:)

That safety system kicked in today as I tried to shake Zack off my tail. Tried to do a wing over and he followed me up (at a safe distance), so I turned it into a slow barrel roll to fool him and was inverted long enough to stutter the engine and the oil pressure alarm went off. As I came around, everything came back to life. Damn these planes are fun.
