    - arms like Bridge City Burnside (distinct motor mounts/fingers).
    - top-plate strap indentations (not slots) like BotAFX or YRZ. (straight; not curves)
    - top-plate screw positions wider than lipo.
    - servicable stack screws, not blocked by arms. nonbinding screw-hole like Moxy/Skyliner/CL1
    - pressnuts on bottom plate, 2 per arm -OR- 1 in arm, 1 in bottom-plate (Apex).
    - arm-screws are not stack-screws.
    - unsure split-deck or solid-bottom. split-deck seems better for "noise", but solid-bottom easier for arm-replacement.
    - 8 standoffs, if full-schoolbus. 6 if fpv-cam-cage
    - true X, 6" arms @5mm, 5.5mm, or 6mm arms -- must allow 6" props.
    - bottom-plate hole for iFlight type hard-soldered ESC capacitors
    - 30x30 and 20x20 stacks
    - back should allow for any analog or HD vtx. (multiple mounting-holes deminsions) 20x20, 30x30 and others.
    - i like the super basic TPU fpv cam mounts (like Flossstyle), but i also kinda like the idea on the Moxy frame (old round style).

    optional considerations:
    - through cam-plates and top standoff like Moxy
    - universal fpc cam mount/cage like Wu Tank / syncmode
    - depending on durability, slots for toilet-tank. (not necessary)
