That question is loaded. I have made progress and have had failures. Vibration seems to be the main problem here. Vibration isolation is a key. I have finally started seeing vibration levels in the normal range. I did an auto-tune and I am pleased with the PID's for stabilize and althold. I will be testing the loiter in the days to come.
I have not checked it's weight but I can say that I have had several flights of 45 minutes with one 16000 mah battery with plenty of reserve in the tank (sort of speak). This is my R&D frame while I am waiting for moulds for an all weather modular frame.

Great job it looks very nice.
Any specs like weight, capacity, flight time, ? really nice. Those motors look great.
