Electric motors

Hi,
had a look at the plans.
My instant concern would be there appears to be no reduntantcy for a engine failure (electric motor failure)
If each motor is independant with no shared drive the machine would very quckly loose control whilst in hover/transition (maybe even cruise)
What is the OEI proceedures??
