This weekend I finished the rebuild of my quadrocopter. It's now equipped with new props (9x4.7 instead of 8x4.5), landing gear and the MicroWii flight controller (all from http://flyduino.net/), running stock MultiWii 2.1. It flies pretty stable with the stock PID values already:

nice! those look like the same gemfan props i use, except mine are 11x4.7 and 12x4.7, but i have to guess that mine is significantly heavier than yours with my aluminum frame.

Thanks for the kind words! Indeed, these are Gemfan props. Flyduino.net has them in bigger sizes as well. I was flying EPP 8x4.5 before and also tested 10x4.5, but the motors could not handle the bigger ones.
These 9 inch props seem to hit the sweet spot for my setup.
