- Is compatible with
Lynxmotion Nano Drone/UAV Flight Controller (with GPS) and other UAV & Drone Flight Controllers
The Lynxmotion MES Reconfigurable Folding UAV Frame Kit is an all-in-one frame designed to allow the user to easily experiment with a variety of different multirotor designs, without having to invest in a variety of custom frames. The frame is based on the M.E.S. system which uses aluminum tubing clamps, G10 composite plates and carbon fiber tubing. A wide variety of different designs can be created using this single frame system and each can vary in terms of arm length, motor configurations, accessories and more. ESCs are mounted (easy access) next to the corresponding motor and wiring is hidden within the tubing. The central tower adds mounting options and protection for the flight controller.
Applications
- UAV / drone / multirotor education
- Multirotor optimization, development & experimentation
- Sensor experimentation
- Design & payload optimization
- Anything you can think of
