2705 Wu was observed in 2009 July through September. The initial results showed a lightcurve with synodic period of 150.5h ± 0.5h. The observations were also checked for variations seen in the mean lightcurve. After eliminating other causes of the variations, it was concluded that 2705 Wu exhibited Non-Principal Axis (NPA) rotation, or tumbling behavior. Attempts to derive the secondary period were unsuccessful.
