Pegasus Heli- Avoid Curve

I was looking on the www.pegasusheli.com website and was intrigued by something new or old depending on how you view it! On the video link under "photo gallery" it shows that there is no avoid curve? I was wondering if anyone had any idea why this might be the case? One thought I had was that perhaps there was a tank holding the compressed air like your garage compressor and if you had an engine failure there would be enough air in the tank to let you land. A bit like running tools on your garage compressor for a while before the compressor kicks in and keeps it topped up, but its a bit of a long shot so no cheeky comments! Any ideas or are they being economical with the truth?
