Software Quadcopter

To create a (common) quad-copter that uses a minimal number of external parts. Basically a flying XC-1A with only the needed components for spatial positioning and power handling.

I would like to handle the operation of all 4 three phase BLDC motors within the XS1-G4. This would require minimal external electronics other than back EMF feedback signal conditioning and the switching MOSFETS for the commutation of the motor windings. Including all data handling / processing from the R/C receiver, GPS, accelerometers and IMU.
