I had this idea when I first saw a quad with round arms.
Really would not be that hard to do, Dans build would be a perfect candidate. :)
I just wonder how much advantage there would be compared to the extra weight that would be required.
It would certainly eliminate the landing issues with normal tilted motors.

I'm not getting the advantage to this vs a traditional quad with a one axis self-level on the camera. They claim better aerodynamics, but how much better really? And at what expense in cost, points of failure, and crashability? Race it against a traditional quad with the same power components and props. Who cares what it does against a car?

The advantage is that you can crash faster:)
