If both rotors spin the same direction, what keeps the aircraft body from rotating the other direction? Is there a tail rotor?

- criticalpotato 8y agoGood questions, even better question would be how did we figure out quantum theory etc but couldn't figure that twice the vertical lift from 2 rotors is more than lift single rotor? How's this something credited to Uber? Dunno.
- rando444 8y agoTandem rotors have been around for almost a century. What they're doing here is stacking rotors on top of each other, not for lift, but apparently because it's quieter and allows for 'better performance' .. whatever that means.
