There is no explanation on the blades. People just do shit weird, and there’d be no difference in performance, as the propulsion would still be the same, they just have the yaw of the blades spun the other direction.
@...Kaze: I disagree. I think that if a blade spins one way, it would have a certain advantage in turning one way, seeing as the back rotor spins to counter act the main rotors.

most likely because they didn’t want the parts to be reused by the enemy. Just like the railroads, they used a different gauge then everyone else.
This is good to know. I’m going to remember this.
