AVIATION / Frame & mechanics / REVIEWED 2026-09-11

A01Carbon-fiber frame

Carry the electronics, battery, and flight loads.

Manufacturers & products

The center carbon structure locates the battery, electronics, camera and four replaceable arms. A nominal 225 mm visualization represents a class of five-inch frames rather than an exact commercial airframe.

American sourcing options appear first. A U.S. company or distributor label does not establish U.S. manufacturing. The origin notes identify the specific evidence and any limits.

manufacturer

DragonPlate / Allred & Associates

Carbon sheet and custom CNC fabrication

U.S.-manufactured structural laminates and custom cutting for a separately engineered frame. [5]

U.S. manufacturing claim

Manufacturer explicitly identifies Elbridge, New York production for its carbon sheets. This is sheet manufacture, not a ready-to-fly frame or proof of U.S. fiber/resin origin. [5]

Program / application

Upstream carbon material / custom fabrication [5]

Published manufacturing site: Elbridge, New York, USA

Custom program inquiry

Request laminate and fabrication specifications against a supplied design; engineering fit remains separate.

Lumenier

QAV-S 2 Joshua Bardwell SE

Five-inch frame with replaceable carbon arms, split lower plates and isolated electronics mounting. [2][1]

U.S. company

U.S. company in Sarasota, Florida. Product listing identifies manufacture in China; U.S. brand ownership does not change that origin. [2][1]

What remains unverified

  • No fully documented, currently offered, U.S.-manufactured complete five-inch freestyle frame was established in this source set.

Where it comes from

A company address is shown separately from a published factory location. Request the manufacturing site and lot traceability for the exact part when sourcing.

What to compare

  • Wheelbase and prop clearance

    Compare motor-center geometry and the actual propeller diameter; the five-inch label alone does not establish clearance.

  • Layout

    True-X and deadcat geometry distribute mass and camera visibility differently.

  • Laminate and thickness

    Ask for ply orientation and plate thickness; surface weave appearance is not a stiffness specification.

  • Electronics mounting

    Check actual hole spacing, hole diameter, grommets and usable stack height.

  • Mass basis

    Separate bare carbon, hardware, prints and camera mount mass.

  • Camera interface

    Confirm camera width, mounting pattern and lens protection with the selected video system.

  • Battery deck

    Check pack footprint, strap slots and clearance to the electronics beneath it.

  • Repair ecosystem

    Match spare arms and plates to the precise revision; a similarly named frame may use different parts.

Selection & integration notes
  • Commercial frames below bracket the illustrative wheelbase; they are alternatives, not a combined bill of materials.
  • Raw U.S.-made carbon sheet is an upstream sourcing option requiring a frame design and fabrication.
