I got a decent amount of people asking if the quad can acro at all. I decided to really push it and the result was surprising!

I would love to see someone who is a better pilot than me fly it because my acro abilities are very basic. Overall, I am still impressed with its performance. There is a decent amount of prop wash, but I believe that can be tuned out. The first 3-5 minutes of flying have a good amount of power and I was able to do some big power loops and recover from dives alright. However, after the battery gets past 3.5-4 volts it becomes noticeably more sluggish. 

I decided to really push it on the throttle the whole flight to see how long it can stay in the air with aggressive flying. I only eased up once the battery voltage got very low. Surprisingly, the quad flew for almost 15 minutes and stayed in the air until 2.42 volts with a resting voltage of 3.07 volts afterwards. Also, the battery never got more than luke warm during all these test. 

I would like to keep this as an open source project, so suggestions to improve the current model are welcome :) currently, I have ordered parts that should shave off quite a bit of weight and am looking into building a digital setup for better video quality.
