More very disturbing but familiar video footage.
Everything including the coning angle looks fine, then suddenly the disk goes completely flat.
One blade then sweeps very low, a couple more rotations, then lets go, followed by the mast..the last part of what looks like four distinct events.



Normal coning angle on departure.


1 second later, the disk goes completely flat.


One blade flies very low


...then lets go.


followed lastly by the mast.
