If you haven't already seen our Stingray 500 episode, you might want to check that out first. That will help to give you an idea of how crazy complicated this thing can get.
Fortunately, Curtis helped to explain what is going on under the hood.
This quad is flown using varying pitch. The rotors pitch up or down in specific patterns to make to quad move in specific directions.
As you can imagine, if you are doing 3D the amount of thinking needed to be done by the board is mind blowing. This is why the Stingray 500 has a custom board designed by Curtis and his father.
Check out the video for the details (Curtis can explain it better than us anyway) and if you want to discuss this yourself, leave a comment or chat it up in the forums!
