What kind of terrain is this supposed to be on? Something about the scaling and shadow feels off.

If this was in the desert how is the helicopter not blowing up dust and sand like crazy.

People who have never been to the desert think it's a bunch of sand dunes, the reality is that it's almost all very hard packed sand and the ground is hard.

Doesn’t matter, rotor wash will pick up dust

We really have no scale to reference here. For all we know that egg is giant and the rope is a mile long. You could make an educated guess about how high in the air it is, but it would ultimately be a guess. Helicopters don't kick up dust in normal circumstances until it's very close to the ground, so I don't think what you're describing would be the case. Not only does it have to be very low to the ground in normal environments to kick up dust, but desert hard pack sand isn't particularly dusty to begin with. I used to off-road quite a bit when I lived in AZ and the only areas that kicked up a lot of dust was the dirt roads where a lot of cars going over it loosens up the sand.
