Depending on how fast the blades are turning and if the helicopter just idle (may be ok) or taking off (don't do it), it may just work if you are at the blade rotor center, but you have to be very careful to maintain position and not get into the blade edge vortex area. The drone will naturally maintain a certain elevation, but if the helicopters blade suction overcomes the drone's ability to go up and maintain altitude... just imagine what happens in a blender. Drone damage isn't the issue (if the drone is disposable), it is the helicopter blade damage that you might be liable for, and those aren't cheap.
Of course, safety is the number one thing here, and making sure that the helicopter pilot, any passengers, are aware of what is being attempted, proper liability insurance is there and coverage in such cases confirmed, then you may be able to try. Otherwise, not recommended.
