Uh-huh uh-huh.

My only worry is the rollover factor. I'd think it would be more stable with the propellers above. But then, I don't know anything.

Prop wash would likely blow you off the thing if the props were above.

The little drone seemed stable enough.

I don't think I'd want to be flyingthe thing at 9k feet without a parachute and a tether/seat belt. But, then it'd be my luck to have the motors conk out, use the chute and then land in some power lines. Bzzzt!
