a Three-point bending setup. b–f Force–displacement curves reveal topology-dependent stiffness. g, h Drone frames from FCC hybrid (60 g) and optimized DC–SC hybrid (21 g). i Hover tests show endurance gains of CFRP-lattice drones over nylon. j Endurance scaling with fixed 5-inch propellers. k Constant-disk-loading case with resized propellers, confirming sustained lattice advantage.
