great vid

@kargidesign I would definitely be quicker. Probably not hard to do at all.
-
@kargidesign or what about two motors on each arm, one for upwards push one for downwards push?

Have you ever consider to make collective pitch quadcopter? It will probaly very bad concerning power/weight ratio, also bigger and more dangerous to play with. But any thoughts how much precision will it provide or not? Does it worth, I mean, to put that effort?

If you take a look closer, it only turns to the side where there is some kind of ball there..
Seems like it helps to make that side weigh more when it doing flips.

@gonzo110391 That's one of the retroreflective balls used to track the vehicle :-). Yes, it does shift the weight of the quadrotor a bit (and, more than that, affects the thrust of the neighboring rotors) but in the end it's effect is neutral for flips. Even if it had a greater effect, think about it: it helps a quadrotor begin a flip but it actually hurts it when it tries to stop rotating.
