TinyQuad redesigned

After having some big crashes due to motors coming off the mounts, we decide to modify the design and use square carbon tubes (we also try with aluminium) that allow us to screw the motors to the arms. We have also redesigned the central plates using carbon sheets. And finally but not less important we have added the sonar to allow "altitude hold".


This is the result:
