This frame is designed for a low profile octocopter which locates two 4-in-1 ESCs at the left side and the right side. A flight controler and a VTX are placed at front and rear.
FC (front or rear), ESCs (left and right) and VTX (rear or front) mounting holes: 20x20mm, 16x16mm, M2
The front standoff mounting holes are suitable for using "Diatone ROMA F1 Camera Metal Protector" for a Nano size camera. For that purpose, the rear standoff height should be 20mm.
Prop size: 2"(flat), 2.5"-3"(front and rear props should be pusher)
Thickness: bottom=2.5mm, top=1.5mm
Weight: About 21g
Betaflight Motors Mixer: HEX X
The front standoff mounting holes are suitable for using "Diatone ROMA F1 Camera Metal Protector" for a Nano size camera. For that purpose, the rear standoff height should be 20mm.
The following picture shows my 3" light weight build with Diatone ROMA F1 Camera Protector. This frame is a prototype and is not the same as the product.

The most AIO FC (F411, F405, ...) can controle six motors if you make resource remapping the LED_STRIP, unused UARTs, or unused SCL (I2C) to M5 and M6, and make those pins enable timer and DMA (for DSHOT). So, I mada a kit which consists of a usual toothpick frame and an additional arm and spacers whch extend a quad toothpick to a hexacopter.
An addional mid arm has 130mm Motor-to-Motor length, which is enough for 3" hexacopter. Using motor mount spacers (5mm), you can align the directions of all propellers of thickness less than 7.5mm. For a successfull build, two additional motors should have diameter less than 18mm, othersize 3" propellers on the front and the rear motors hit the mid motors.
If you want to mount additional ESCs under the main frame, the Minimal Bottom Plate 1.5mm is reccomended for protecting them.
FC and ESC mount : 16x16mm, 20x20mm, 25.5x25.5mm, M2
This kit consists of the SimplePick-EX 3mm version and four of Arm-Splitter (2.5mm). If you have an AIO FC with F405 or above, it is easy to build an octocopter even if it does not have enough dedicated motor pads. For that purpose, you only need to make resource remapping the LED_Strip, unused UARTs, or unused SCL (I2C) to M5-M8, and make those pins enable timer and DMA (for DSHOT). There are 1-2S AIO FCs with F405 by JHEMCU and Flywoo, it is also possible to build a 1S octocopter.
If you want to mount an additional 4-in-1 ESC under the main plate, the Minimal Bottom Plate 1.5mm is reccomended for protecting it.
FC & ESC Mount : 16x16mm, 20x20mm, 25.5x25.5mm, M2
This kit is designed for a 3" toothpick style X8 octocopter.
TuneRC Poly F405 2S-4S AIO FC has soldering pads dedicated for M5-M8. Now, anyone can build a toothpick style 3" X8 by adding a 4-in-1 ESC and four motors with this kit. Even if your AIO FC (F405 or above) does not have soldering pads dedicated for M5-M8, you can still make an X8 by making resourse remapping LED_STRIP, unused UARTS, or unused SCL (I2C) to M5-M8, and making those pins enable timer and DMA (for DSHOT).
If you want to mount an additional 4-in-1 ESC under the main plate, the Minimal Bottom Plate 1.5mm is reccomended for protecting it.
FC and ESC Mount : 16x16mm, 20x20mm, 25.5x25.5mm, M2
Wheel Base : 140mm
Thickness : Main Plate 3mm, Motor Mount 2.5mm
Weight : About 16g
As for compatibility with the FPV Cage series, this frame kit with 3" props is compatible only with the FPV Cage for 14mm Cam.
This frame is designed for a toothpick style hexacopter.
If you want to mount additional ESCs under the frame, the Minimal Bottom Plate 1.5mm is reccomended for protecting them.
FC and ESC mounting holes: 25.5x25.5mm, 20x20mm, 16x16mm, M2
Motor mounting holes: 9x9mm -12x12mm, M2
Weight: About 9.5g

The recommended prop size is 3". As for 3.5", it is possible but a little bit tight for mounting a battery.
Using a not-too-simplified AIO flight controller which has enough soldering pads such as two sets of UARTs and a LED strip, it is not difficult to build a hexacopter by adding a 4-in-1 ESC or two individual ESCs. The following picture shows an example of a 3" build using a JHEMCU GHF13AIO FC F411 2-4S 13A with a 16x16mm 4-in-1 ESC by Flywoo.
GHF13AIO has soldering pads for LED_STRIP and I2C, I used the LED_STRIP (A08) pad for Motor 5 and the SCL (B08) pad for Motor 6. The corresponding CLI diff are as follows:
# resources
resource MOTOR 5 A08
resource MOTOR 6 B08
resource LED_STRIP 1 NONE
resource I2C_SCL 1 NONE
This frame is a Wide-X style version of the famous Babytooth (by FPV CYCLE) with 16x16mm and 20x20mm mounting holes as well as 25.5x25.5mm mounting holes. Each arm has an extra slit and a hole which keep the motor wire stable and safe if you make the wire go through them.
Wheel base: 155.2mm
FC and ESC mounting holes: 25.5x25.5mm, 20x20mm, 16x16mm, M2
