The Dragonfly is an ultralight toothpick frame that can be built in either a squishX or stretchX layout. This frame has a slightly larger wheelbase compared to most 3 inch toothpicks, which keeps the props in cleaner air. When built without arm braces, it is less than 10grams. For 3s builds, arm braces are recommended for more durability. It is recommended to build this frame on 2s, which I've found to give the best performance with controllable power for either racing or freestyle.

This is the second version of the Dragonfly Lite toothpick. After a year of flying (and crashing) this frame on many different setups, I've made a few improvements.
Changes from v1:
- New top plate design, lighter and better braced for more stiffness
- New bottom plate design, stronger all around
- More refined arms
- New arm braces for 3s builds
