The answer is yes because they are permanently in a state of autorotation as the rotors are unpowered during flight, you pre-engage the rotors to a given rpm and then they are unpowered after that.
You can see the pre-engage disc on the bottom picture below the rotors.

These little machines are gaining popularity in the UK, I have seen a few of them about while out walking the dog.
