Then he followed the installation procedure, including the mast nut torque application. As it descended it spun around 2-3 times.

This creates boundary layer separation, resulting in a loss of lift. Watch out for torque effect (especially if you are in high-powered aircraft) since the increase in power can cause the nose to yaw to the left. Be careful because retracting the flaps causes the center of the lift to move forward. What Is a Power-on Stall?
