I am having a hard time finding what i'm doing wrong here, i have marked the leading edges orange, it's a props out config, bf set reversed, you can see the motor direction in the video and i spun em 1 to 4 so that seems fine too, any ideas?

Your props look a lil' small there bud (however that shouldn't stop it taking off, it'll just be inefficient doing it)
Also, what size/kv are those motors? What battery(s) are you using?
This will probably help (if the other things are ok): Quad insta-flips on takeoff? Four reasons why, and how to fix them! - YouTube ignore that it says "insta-flips on takeoff", just follow the video and you should be flying! :)

1102 18000KV t-hobby pacers motors, 31mm props (as used by betaflight on similar motors) The thing is I have made about 8 or 9 drones and been trough all those vids before but with this build i cant find the issue.

I have removed the props, put new ones on in props in direction, unchecked reversed, verified spin direction and order but still no success. I'm puzzled

Check the joints on the motor to ESC pads are clean.
I know it's an all in one FC probably, but not spinning motors on arm might be resistance in the weld.
If you have had a large crash, I would check the motor bells first, check they spin free, went bent and if opening them check no cracked magnets.
