This design still requires an additional servo for rotor actuation, so the minimum number of actuators is the same as for a fixed wing (roll and yaw are coupled, so the bare minimum is a single rudder servo).

No, the rotors are tilted by timing the acceleration from the single motor - there's no servo in the design in the video.
