Yesterday I posted that NASA's Mission Control indicated that Ingenuity "Failed" the High Speed test of the Rotors and blades... This video provides the viewer with the reason for the failure... Don't get nervous, all is okay with Ingenuity, but there is a software or timing glitch that needs to be resolved...

The Flight is still on for Wednesday!!! Yay!!!

Enjoy this news clip...

Thank you my space-exploration advocate friend Sgt (Join to see) for posting this video focused on the the NASA Perseverance rover camera recording the Ingenuity helicopter as NASA engineers and technicians watch far away :-)
The wonders of remote testing, operation and remote repair. It is wonderful to see the results of painstaking design, development and execution of operations on the Red Planet.
