Loss of power leading to LoC, or pilot action reducing the Rotor RPM and slowing the engine down?
Thats was a scenic flights operation. There is another video of him trying to take-off and losing Rotor RPM right after losing ground effect, he then turns back (w/ left turn ), he then somehow manages to take off. That aircraft shouldn't be there fully loaded (5 POB according to newspaper ) graphs can prove that. Elevation 2550 ft and temperature around 25c.
