Our quadcopter and the test stand were physically well-built the way we planned. Overall weight of the chassis was quite lighter than we expected and the motors were quite powerful for the size of our quadcopter. Our wireless communication protocol works at the highest 2400 baud rate. Although we could communicate with the quadcopter wirelessly, the stability of it could not be fully trusted, so we built a see-saw like test stand and zip-tied the quadcopter to it during the most of our test flights. It responses to commands pretty well, and the motors are quick to adjust yaw, pitch, roll and throttle values. However, when they take off from the ground, the motors abruptly exert too much throttle, and without being tied down to the test stand, the quadcopter could fly off and crash onto obstacles.
