thanks, guys, but wtf is a counterrotating rotor? And yes, I googled it, but it just seems to be used as a stock-phrase. I wouldn't be suprised if half the authors using it have no idea what it actually means

Is it a rotor with a special bit of design to stop rotation of the helicopter?

But basically you're saying there's no advantage to having the blades going a particular way?
