How It Works
Design, Print, Fly, Iterate
Describe Your Build
Tell us your drone platform, payload requirements, and performance goals.
Design & Optimize
We design parts optimized for weight, strength, and aerodynamics -- CFD considerations included.
Print in Flight-Grade Materials
Nylon, PETG, or carbon-fiber composites -- chosen for your specific flight environment.
Test & Iterate
Fly, test, refine -- we turn around revisions in 48 hours.
Materials & Specs
Flight-Grade Materials for Every Application
Nylon
Best strength-to-weight ratio. Ideal for structural frames and load-bearing components that need to stay light.
PETG
Excellent impact resistance for crash-prone parts. Good chemical resistance and dimensional stability.
TPU
Flexible and vibration-dampening. Perfect for camera mounts, landing gear pads, and shock absorbers.
Carbon-Fiber Composites
Maximum rigidity with minimum weight. For performance builds where every gram counts.
Case Study
Custom Camera Mounts for Commercial Survey Drones
Challenge
A Charlotte commercial drone company needed custom camera mounts for their survey drones. Off-the-shelf mounts didn't fit their specialized sensor package and introduced excessive vibration into aerial imaging.
Solution
CLT 3D Printing designed custom Nylon mounts with integrated vibration dampening. We iterated through three design revisions in under a week, optimizing weight and fitment for their specific sensor configuration.
Result
The final mounts reduced vibration by 40% and shaved 15g per unit compared to the off-the-shelf solution. CLT now provides ongoing replacement parts for their fleet, with 48-hour turnaround on reorders.
Frequently Asked Questions
What materials do you use for drone parts?
Nylon for light, strong structural frames; PETG for impact resistance on crash-prone parts; TPU for vibration-dampening camera mounts and landing pads; and carbon-fiber composites for maximum rigidity in performance builds.
How fast can I get replacement drone parts?
Replacement arms, landing gear, and motor mounts are printed and shipped within days, and design revisions are typically turned around in about 48 hours.
Can you design a custom drone frame?
Yes. Tell us your platform, payload, and performance goals, and we design a frame or body optimized for weight and strength around your build.
How large can a printed drone part be?
A single printed part can be up to 256 x 256 x 252 mm. Larger frames can be designed as multiple parts that assemble together.
Can you print camera and sensor mounts?
Yes. We print gimbal mounts, sensor housings, and camera brackets, often in TPU or with dampening features to cut vibration in your footage.
