your video is not working
....................................

Seen these types of videos before..
It has to do with the frame rates of the video and how fast the blades are moving. The main rotor IS spinning, but the way the video is being
captured makes it look like they are not.
It is a trick of the camera so to speak.

Last year the company I was working for had to put some A/C units on the roof. They brought in a helicopter to lift them up there. A friend of mine
filmed it with his phone.
The helicopter worked exactly as a helicopter is supposed to work, saw it with my own eyes.
The footage he caught on his cell phone camera had the blades barely moving or frozen.
It's the camera, not the helicopter. I know this to be true.

Got it sorted.
Thank you for your posting fellas/fellarettes.

In addition to the wagon wheel effect, I think it could also be a toy helicopter of some sort.

Just curious, if it is the wagon wheel effect, why is the shadow of the blade on the hull a single shadow and not a shadowed blurr? iIf it was
spinning, wouldnt the camera still catch the blurred shadow of the blades spinning? I think it could be a toy

The reason the shadow is not blurred is the same reason the blades are not blurred. The shadow is still being cast at the speed of light regardless as
to what frame rate the camera has.

nah its a real chopper, this is the display routine that I seen at RAF Leuchars 2 years ago, i taken pictures with my camera and i get the same
results, same with the Apache last year see link

Great video. I think seeing is NOT believing, because we are such bad eyewitnesses, and cameras are better but not much, and the phrase "cameras
don't lie" is obviously not true as this video illustrates. It's no hoax, and no toy, it just shows some of the camera limitations like the "Rod"
videos do.
It's amazing that the shutter speed of the camera and the blade rotational speed synced so well for so long to produce this effect.
Thanks for posting it!
