I'm just gonna say it now, RIP. If a helicopter rotor is so much as unbalanced by a mere ounce it will vibrate itself to dust, and those rotors don't look anything like rotors.

It's like this one time where my car's wheel was out of balance by 3 grams. The alloy wheel got shredded apart as I was doing 70mph, sparks flying everywhere...

Utter balls, they are nearly permanently out of balance when running and are built with this taken into account. I fear it will be the fact that it will be made from cheap chinese steel and weigh as much as the sun  Dave!
