Drone airframes

A frame that adapts.
A chassis you can keep.

Continuous-carbon-fiber structures with replaceable electronics chassis. Designed around the way you build, maintain and evolve a drone.

Modular by design

Separate the structure
from the electronics.

A damaged frame shouldn’t force you to rebuild your entire electronics installation.

Swap the frame or chassis

Replace either assembly separately on compatible configurations.

Access components independently

Service electronic components without opening the complete central chassis for every replacement.

Reuse a common interface

Move a common chassis between compatible frame sizes while keeping the electronics layout.

CarbonForm finished airframe configurations with metal, printed-composite and cut-carbon-fiber central chassis.

Finished-product configurations. Compatibility is confirmed for each application.

An architectural difference

Designed beyond
the first assembly.

Frame and chassis choices affect fabrication, integration and service. Compare the architecture around your use case.

Frame-size changesMay require new plate geometry and assembly changes.Adapt frame geometry within a common product platform.
Electronics serviceAccess depends on plate stack and component layout.Modular layout enables independent component service.
Structural replacementCan involve disassembling the electronics stack.Separate replacement of compatible frame and chassis assemblies.

Architectures vary across products. Final fit, service access and compatibility depend on the selected configuration.

01 / GEOMETRY

Frame dimensions

Discuss propeller class, motor positions, clearances and the overall structural envelope.

02 / INTEGRATION

Mounting interfaces

03 / EVALUATION

Operating requirements

Set priorities for weight, stiffness, vibration and repairability before evaluation.

Common questions.

Does one chassis fit every frame size?

A common chassis can fit multiple compatible frame configurations. Dimensions, mounting interfaces and clearances must be checked for each combination; compatibility is not universal.

Do you supply complete, flight-ready drones?

This website focuses on airframes and chassis. Motors, flight electronics, batteries and other flight components are not included unless specifically agreed in a quotation.

Can you adapt a frame to our electronics?

Yes. Start with your electronics envelope, component layout, motor mounting requirements and target frame size. We will discuss the configuration and evaluation scope with you.

Keep your platform moving.
