When you buy a carbon frame kit from us, you’ll still need to select a compatible flight stack (flight controller + ESC), motors, propellers, batteries and charger to complete the build and ensure everything works together reliably. Optional protective 3D-printed parts and spare components.

Start with the frame size and style based on your flying goals, for example our carbon 5-inch frames are great for freestyle, 7-inch for long-range cruising and heavier packs, and ensure the kit supports the mounting pattern of the electronics you plan to use.

You must check that the frame has the correct mounting pattern for the flight-controller & ESC stack, that the motor size and KV rating suit your propellers and battery voltage and that the battery size fits the frame and your flying style.

Building your own drone means you will need more than just parts, you’ll need a soldering iron, hex drivers, multimeter, zip-ties, replacement propellers and arms (crashes will happen), and regular inspection of screws, wiring and motor mounts to keep your custom build safe and performing well.
