heres the explanation for it if you don't get it:

video cameras are actually just a quick run through of photographs taken wiht very short intervals. therefore, your video camera has a frame rate of 30 frames a second. therefore, it takes 30 'pictures' every second. now if a helicopter span at any MULTIPLE of that 30 (30, 60, 300, 900) that would mean that every 'picture' that was taken by the video camera would have the blades in the exact same position, meaning they have spun around exactly a certain amount of times (ending up in the same position) before the video camera shot its next 'picture'.

The camera can only see a number of frames per second. But the frame rate and the rotation of the blades is almost identical. So the camera sees that the blades arnt moving at all. When the Helicopter lowers or gets higher you acn see the blades start to spin again because its starting to go at a different speed now but only a little bit.
