I should be able to have a thurst of 642g per motor with my setup - and so 2568 for all motors. It's nearly a ratio of 2:1 from a thrust/weight perspective. So, theorically the setup is correct.
My experiments
Motors setup

motor 1 : CW rotation
motor 2 : CCW rotation
motor 3 : CW rotation
motor 4 : CCW rotation

If I have a 500g pull, shouldn't I be able to have a 500g push by changing 2 wires of my motor and changing of propeller ?
- Frame : Powerday, S500 Quadcopter Frame
- Motors : Readytosky, 2212, 920kv, DC 7-12V
- ESC : Readytosky, Cont. Current 30A, Max. Current 40A, 2-6S
- Propelers : Readytosky, 1045, 10" * 4"5
- Micro-controler : Arduino UNO
- Battery : Lipo, 11.1V 5000mAh, 60C, 3S
- ESC = 28.5g * 4 = 114g
- Motors = 53g * 4 = 212g
- Propellers = 10g * 4 = 40g
- Frame = 454g
- Battery = 383g
- Total = 114 + 212 + 40 + 454 + 383 = 1203g
- Total with wires, boards, sensors, 9V battery, screws, ... = 1306g

- CW propeller and 2 wires reversed so the motor is also rotating CW
- CCW propeller and no wire reversed so the motor is also rotating CCW
- At 100% power, these setup generate around 500g of pull so the tared scale shows +500g.
- I've tried to switch 1 propeller and 1 motor in every configuration possible and my best measure is a push of 17g so the tared scale shows -17g.
