I have a few brocken micro helicopters lying around and deciced.to try a quick experiment.
I removed the tail rotor and electronics and connected the 2 main rotors together, by a piece of meral coat hanger.

What I forgot was, you need to have one of the rotors going the oposite direction to counter the rotation of the other one.

Now I never have to worry about the really crappy rechargeable battery that it came with.
