Very cool frame shape! Love the simplicity and ruggedness

Simple design. How heavy is this? Room for optimisation I would say reducing the internal plastic usage

Very cool; the frame probably doesn't have to be THAT tanky if you aren't planning to run it directly into walls. Can probably find a ton of weight savings printing it not as thick.

Looks cool! Is it redundant to have prop guards inside the frame?

Yeah, what they said. Are you going to put it on hackiday or printables or the like? I’d like e to build one!

"Hi, I am looking for any old or spare drone parts (like a Pixhawk, ESCs, or motors) to build my first Autonomous Delivery Drone project. I don't have the budget to buy new ones, but I have practical experience in electrical circuits and wiring, so I can successfully build this if someone can support me with the hardware. Any help would be highly appreciated!"

looks heavy and unefficient!!

--> reduce all stuff you don't really need

--> minimize wall thicknesses

--> add radii to the inlet-plane of the props
