I would say its likely that the pilots just got over excited, didn't notice the falling airspeed and stalled without sufficient height to pull up and recover.

However, I do know that the Flux Capacitor on that particular type of helicopter has been prone to a lot of technical failure so we shouldn't rule out that as a cause.

I guess we will all just have to wait and see what the accident report says when they publish it on the internet.
