Researchers from the University of Zurich’s Robotics and Perception Group have proven that this does not need to be the case by keeping a quadcopter flying with only three motors. A quadcopter ...

According to the team’s results, the BrainGate array wired directly to motor neurons offered a “sixfold improvement” on the user’s quadcopter piloting when compared to an EEG system.

The Mini QBIT is just a 3″ mini quadcopter with a pair of wings mounted ... To compensate for this, the controller set up to swap these two channels at the flip of a switch.

The authors believe that to restore highly functional fine motor control, electrodes need to be placed closer to the neurons. The study notes a sixfold improvement in the user's quadcopter flight ...
