Can you recommend a model to me ?

Please, let me know.
Audioguru:
A quadcopter is a toy. The manufacturer will not publish spec's for any of its parts.
Quadcopters, helicopters, model airplanes, model cars and model boats sold by Horizon Hobby have detailed manuals online listing their parts and their part numbers for the parts.

Having a full open source/open hardware quadcopter is not  easy.

Indeed the quad is composed of many parts, and  some of them may not be open hardware ( like the ESC).

It also very much depends the range of quadcopters you are looking for. 
A possible solution is the well described model publish in the DIYODE magazine ( you have access to everything online for free)

By the way, DIYODE is a very nice new magazine on electronics, with very pertinent projects and tutorials.

This model which is of  relatively large size has a lot  of possibilities, but will not come cheap. Consider 800$ or more
depending on the options.

Open hardware/Open software :

You can use open software for  all components :
- Open TX  for the radio transmitter. Be careful to choose one that support it. Taranis X9D is an example that is provided with it.

For the main  controller board, there are several options of open source software.
Adupilot, pixhawk  PX4 and several others.

It does not mean that the board will be always open hardware.

There is plenty of information available on the web : as examples
https://www.dronecode.org/
http://ardupilot.org/
http://px4.io/

And the very good youtube channel

I have not much time to do more, but hope this will be useful as a start.
