During this flight the swash plate failed causing the helicopter to crash due to loss of control of the main rotor. After picking up what was left of it, I noticed that the pin that holds the stationary part of the swash plate had broken allowing the lower part to rotate causing the loss of control. At the end you can see how the helicopter sharply descends before crashing.
