Piotr Esden-Tempski @ Hak5

Piotr gave a series of interviews at Hack5 in which he walks through most steps for setting up a Quadrotor with the Lisa/M V2.
The bumblebee_quad.xml airframe file is included in the default installation of paparazzi, and can be easily found in the default airframe paparazzi center dropdown as "Bumblebee_Quad".
This may be very helpful for beginners since a lot of important paparazzi related stuff is explained (but not all is required for a beginner).
The videos also contain some additional stuff which has nothing to do with paparazzi.
