I am looking for a new project to start.  Anyone willing to give this a try?  It's WAY over my head, but as far as durability, weight vs flight time, etc it seems like a ingenious project.  I don't know why their flight time is so low, but it looks like there is just one motor and 8 rudders (i.e. 1 motor and 8 servos).  From a cost perspective this seems like a cheap build, and I am sure that saving money on props won't hurt!
