The video frame speed is synced to the rotor rotation?

1. The rotor is moving super fast
2. It's crashing?

Must have filled it with helium!

What is it with these flying conundrums that will end up ruining people's e-lives over it? :p

In all seriousness, my bet is on a strobe effect. The fps that the camera is recording just makes it seem like the blades are stopped.

[Restoman]

It looks as if it's in a free fall.

[E30SPDFRK]

Videos frames are just at the same speed the rotor is spinning.

Definitely the strobe effect. The rotor should at least be auto-rotating.

It's flying for the same reason wagon wheels rotate the wrong direction in cowboy movies.
