LOL seeing this right after my arducopter attempted to fly through a loop and failing was very satisfying

yeah and madhuran remember that they are also using 300.000 USD Vicon camera system to track those quads. So we pretty "safe" with ArduCopters

They are lucky to have that bottom/elevated net, cause every crash could be $4K's worth of new parts (on just 2 quads, $8K if all 4 collided).

 

I'm surprised they have not mounted safety rings around the propellers, the Stanford and MIT guys did.
