I have Nupic running on a Raspberry Pi and had it controlling an RC car.  It 
works, but the pi is not really fast enough for real time control.  Especially 
for a quadcopter, you would want to have the cla running on a laptop, and send 
commands to the embedded system.  Be sure to take a look at Chetan's code from 
the last hackathon where he created a cla controller that learned to fly to a 
target altitude.
