What would happen if you slowed the forward rotor? Would the imbalanced torque cause the "rear to 'catch up' with the front", thereby get the rear rotor out of the forward's slip-stream? The rotor system is controlled by a one-way clutch. If the engine stops the blades are freewheeling.
If your rotor RPM gets too slow, your blades will cone up and you then
become a rock.
