Description

This is what it looks like to me, by adding AxesHelper, I just wanted to ask if this is always the case?

Many thanks

    I was considering letting the user pick the camera UP vector, so you can decide what North East are, but at the moment is kinda following defaults threejs behaviour, where Y is UP and X is right and -Z forward.

    So north is -z and east is +x.

            N
           - z
    
    W - x   ⨁   + x E
    
           + z
            S

    It shouldn't be hard to have +Y for north instead, and would make more sense for a lot of cases. PRs are welcomed for that feature 😄
