A helicopter uses a rear rotor to counteract the main rotor rotation. Here he is using thrust vectoring to perform that task.

- kjeetgill 8y agoAh, thanks! Some helecoptors also just use a second main rotor spinning in the opposite direction instead right? Would that not be sufficient? Sorry if it's covered in the video I've only seen the beginning so far.

- Moru 8y agoYes but he only had one fan. Just a rotating ring mounted somewhere would help too. But not as much fun I guess :-)
- lolc 8y agoThis is visible in the very last scene where it automatically tilts its blades to counteract the rotation induced by the accelerating propeller.
