Thanks,

My old pal, the Mi 24 Hind. The apparent stoppage of the rotors is
due to their rotation nearly matching the refresh rate of the video -
not magic.


It's amazing how well in sync the rotors and the camera shutter are.
Does that helicopter have some kind of computer controlled rpm governor?
