That's some good machinery there. A little explanation for others:

On a heli, the blades spin at the same constant speed. The pilot moves the heli by controlling the pitch/angle of the blades instead. This is different than a plane, which mainly controls them by changing the rpm. This camera trick wouldn't work too well with *most* aircraft.
