No more resisting the market trend. I'm developing a quadcopter

Yeah that's right. Everywhere you go, including some intern projects at my company, quadcopter drones is the current trend. The marketing success is simple. It's a lot cheaper and less complex and than a comparable RC helicopter. They're virtually no mechanical moving parts (expect the platform itself). And it's perfectly suited for camera attachment. So hot combination has spawned the quacopter drone revolution. I've always been against following a trend just for the sake of it. But considering that I need perfect weather test fly my flight controller only makes sense to start modifying my code to accommodate for a quadcopter. The controls are pretty straightforward and the design is incredibly simple. Another design dev coming up!
