Helicopters tilt to offset the direction of their lift in order to initiate movement in that direction.
A helicopter pilot can tip the helicopter forward to get a little forward motion, and then tip the helicopter back to stop or even reverse. Likewise, the pilot can make the helicopter "slew" left or right by tilting the helicopter left or right.
