No more than in a Chinook, for example. The only significant difference is that the 2 rotors are much nearer. Otherwise I think the physics are simpler since the precession of each rotor is cancelled by the other. The most complex part is probably the yaw command as it must act on blade pitches alone to generate the differential torque required.

they are very expensive to fly, and you must goto k-max school before you can

The physics and mechanics in that thing have got to be incredibly complex! Sweet machines!

these things are so quiet compared to other choppers

thats one ugly helicopter but its very powerful and have an awesome sling load lifting capability. thats all that matters.

I love how fast the rotors spin. It makes the best rotor slap.

too bad we can't hear the real sound those blades makes, they are one of a kind.Awsome machine ! thanks for posting

massive sling load capacity

What a badass helicopter!!! can I have it?
