Aeroptera has launched Lace, an open-source drone platform specifically engineered for 3D printed composite research.

Originally reported by 南极熊

Aeroptera has launched Lace, an open-source drone platform specifically engineered for 3D printed composite research. By utilizing high-strength carbon fiber filaments, the airframe eliminates traditional tooling costs and reduces prototyping lead times by over 75%. This open-source approach allows research institutions to iterate on structural designs without proprietary hardware restrictions. Integrating functional composites into a 3D printable format marks a shift toward localized aerospace production. 🛸
