An elegant, open frame design, carried by a sturdy main plate with a compact and efficient servo rack design, combines easy maintenance and wiring. This is completed by an unbelievably stiff, layered carbon frame with beautifully chamfered edges on the lower panel. M5 is designed for modern 15 mm servos, while M6 is designed for 20 mm servos all around. If desired, M5 can be crossgraded to 20 mm servos using M6 parts.

The airframe can accept any battery configuration into a spacious 58 x 70 x 300 mm battery bay.
