Why do some helicopters have a tail rotor canted upwards?

I recently noticed this in the visualizations for the Bell 360 Invictus (after Bell apparently dropped the fenestron tail rotor) and also in the UH-60 Black Hawk.

I know the Super Stallion has a tail rotor canted downward for additional lift. This leads me to believe a tail rotor canted downward would have the opposite effect of reducing lift? Of course, this can't be right, so I want to find where my understanding is lacking.

Video of a Guimbal Cabri G2. This new generation of light training helicopter is fitted with a three blades spheriflex main rotor, a composite fuselage and a fenestron (shrouded) tail rotor which increase safety on the ground and greatly decrease noise and vibration. youtu.be/RqQI-ta0Bgc

Has anyone figured out the mi-24 Hind tail rotor/yaw yet?

I have been flying the helicopters for years now , I know the Huey and mastered the Mi-8 (100+hours in just the mi-8) I don’t use rudder pedals because I don’t have space so I still use joystick twist for yaw. On all the helicopters I have the option checked to allow for rudder trim and that’s how I normally fly. I’m still struggling with yaw in the hind. I usually turn on the autopilot yaw channel. The one thing I cannot figure out for sure is if the rudder trim (a dcs helper option)is fighting the actual yaw autopilot. I think it’s is. Long story does anyone know what’s going on ?
