animation effect's for helicopters rotors

animation effect's for helicopters rotors thats title just to let you all know been working on some new
upgrades of my seaking which will be out soon !!
noticed something tho while testing and playing around with the the aircarft config .


(old version here)

Helicopter 66  us navy


the (prop_anim_ratio=66.70) should be around 1.3 or so tried this setting just see what would happen now before some one start say thats no good just some little info first
the models are seaking as you can guess lol  whats different is the main rotor system i did not make the rotor's like a spinning disk there are 5 rotor blades as you would see when there sinning slow or stopped.

now whats happenning is if you go to a tower view and zoom in what you see are 5 moving blades spinning as you would

but whats looks ever better is as you increase the rpm to take off you see the blades speed up or slow down  

now the ratio=66.70 i guess is the speed of the  frame's at which you see now i am only guessing here the expert's might point out that the real ratio is really 6.70
but when set to this setting the same things does not happen

i'll do some screeny's for you guys to look at not sure if i can capture this effect tho


regards
