Cause of that helicopter crash unknown after preliminary report release.

No mast bumping. No God nut failures. No known cause other than the tail broke off just before the helicopter launched its transmission and rotor blades off the body.

It was some type of internal or external catastrophic drive-train failure.

The amount of energy needed to sheer the tail, and main rotor completely from the main body in such a short period of time is HUGE.
