They primarily show a small multirotor(s) response to

1. being launched in the air to about 4 meters altitude (by a pre-programmed "catapult" flight-mode)

2. forgetting its internal controller parameters [1]. Also forgetting the IMU orientation with respect to the actuators [2].

3. being subjected to a sequence of motor commands according to [1]

4. autonomous recovery to a position setpoint after the missing parameters have been identified and suitable control parameters have been calculated
