Hmmm...
Sure looks like the incident occurred in a hover. I not sure if that is implied when the owner describes the pilot as having "manuevered it to the ground."
Looking at the arc shaped scrapes on the asphalt, I think it went around a full rotation and a half.
If that was a touchdown from an autorotation entered at altitude, many praises, but then again, why the significant rotations upon touchdown.
If it happened in a hover, good job, but more a matter of being at the proper hover height and holding on.
