According to researchers from Virginia Tech, most propellers on consumer drones spin at a rate of 8000 RPM and yet we are told that the Mars drone’s blades spin at 2500 RPM to compensate for the ONE percent of Earth’s atmosphere.

RPM only determines thrust for a GIVEN size blade. If you enlarge the blades... they can go slower to achieve the same thrust. So you are confused as to why an aircraft designed to work on earth would not work on Mars? I feel so sorry for you.

Allow me to sum up the comments below: "but gravity! The government wouldn't lie!"

You know nothing. Read how the mars drone was designed. If you can't understand it, don't rubbish what you don't understand.

density trumps gravity every time so why is there gravity ?

The Atmosphere is .06% Earths and like 1/5 Gravity,this is why they put a 45 degree pitch on the rotors and they spin much faster than normal rotors. It will fly on Mars but it will use much more power and speed to do the same lift,this is why it can't fly very long distances or for long. Research it,do the calculations,you will learn that a vacuum chamber on Earth is as good an experiment as the killer,euthanizing vaccine they are pushing on us.

While on Mars the atmospheric pressure is much less than Earth... so is the gravity. That is what you didn't compensate for in the experiment.

Do you have to account for gravity in a vacuum chamber?
