Swift CF 3in
A lightweight and durable carbon fiber frame built around lithium ion battery technology

Origin
After trying several ready made 1S lithium ion quadcopters, I realized they all forced compromises. Most were fragile and low powered while some relied on proprietary parts that limited upgrades and repairs. None of them felt like a platform built to evolve.
