take 4 of this concept, i have added another axis to the props and also made the angle of the rotors adjustable by vtol to see if it improves the stability. the idea behind the 30 degrees in the 1st place was to make it work with only 1 axis and as far as im concerned it did but it suffers from instability when in motion (same as this one). although I didn't want to, i have put in a reduced gyro to help with the instability when moving forwards..
