I believe the tail's dihedral design prevents the aircraft from rolling. Both wings are actively driven through some kind of coaxial drive shaft. You could use the reaction torque to drive the second set of wings, but that would cause some other problems that would have to be overcome.
Nathan......wow! I had not seen this footage before...the thrust-wing was especially intriguing...I guess I'll have to find ome time to try to build one of those!
Where did the footage come from? I would love to see more!

I built a frame for one but am clueless as to how to make the tail stationary. maybe it's wrong.
