Dissecting #Ingenuity's accident.
This animation shows one of the rotor blades before and after the #MarsHelicopter's 72nd landing. The fact that the image with the broken blade had to shrink and change perspective so much to match the other one is an indication of the RTE camera being much closer to the ground after landing 72.
Superimposed, transformed RTE images from #Flight69 and #Flight72.

Footprints on the regolith from both #Flight68 and #Flight69 can be seen in this image that was just downlinked. It appears #Ingenuity's signal at #Perseverance's new location at RMC 49.2818 is much stronger.
Note: the electronics are still functional, sending images to the rover.
