Custom Bottom Electronics Tray + Matching Top Plate 10-inch FPV Drone Anyone

About the job

Custom Bottom Electronics Tray + Matching Top Plate
10-inch FPV Drone
Date: February 19, 2026
Scope of Work
Design one single custom bottom electronics tray and a matching extended top plate for the existing unmodified 10-inch frame and original arms to support Master Airscrew 9x4.5 tri-blade props.
No arm lengthening, no arm-holder stretch, no arm extenders — we are staying strictly 10-inch overall with the original arms untouched.
Key Requirements:

Tray must be lengthened to fit the three components laid end-to-end (rear to front):
• Rear: AVerMedia D131 carrier board
• Middle: Pixhawk 6X
• Front: Hobbywing XRotor FPV G2 65A 4-in-1 ESC
Critical datum: The 6 existing M3 arm-mounting holes must remain in their exact original positions relative to the arms — these are the fixed reference points that define arm alignment and overall balance.
Extend the existing main top plate to exactly match the new tray length while preserving all original mounting holes and protection features.
When designing the tray + top plate, the overall Center of Gravity (CG) of the completed drone (including battery, motors, and payload) must be kept as close as possible to the original balance point.
Tray width: 340–360 mm for improved landing stability (if it fits within the 10-inch frame envelope).
Single vibration-damped tray only (same TPU/foam recess style as previous FLIR mount).
Front of tray kept 100% clear with generous cable routing channels.
All components mounted flat o... read more

Tray width: 340–360 mm for improved landing stability (if it fits within the 10-inch frame envelope).
Single vibration-damped tray only (same TPU/foam recess style as previous FLIR mount).
Front of tray kept 100% clear with generous cable routing channels.
All components mounted flat on the same plane.
Add exactly 6 standoffs between the new bottom tray and the matching top plate (M3 thread recommended, height flexible — designer can choose practical length).
To address concern about the AVerMedia D131 catching wind (due to standoff mounting), please design appropriate mitigation features (e.g. low-profile side skirts/walls, streamlined partial fairing or shroud around the rear electronics area) to minimize aerodynamic drag while preserving good cooling airflow, easy access/serviceability, cable routing, and vibration isolation.
Verify propeller clearance in CAD: Include the exact Master Airscrew 9x4.5 tri-blade props in the model and confirm safe clearance from body, arms, landing gear, and battery in all flight attitudes. (Any extra CAD testing time needed for this is included.)

AVerMedia D131 WiFi Module Provision (minor addition):
The AVerMedia D131 has a built-in M.2 Key E slot. Reserve 8 mm vertical clearance above this slot for a BL-M8812EU2 M.2 2230 WiFi module (29 dBm high-power version). Provide clean routing channels for two short u.FL pigtails. Include two M3 antenna mounting bosses on the top plate or rear edge for two external 5.8 GHz antennas (FOXEER Lollipop 2.3 dBi RHCP or equivalent). Coordinate antenna bosses and routing with any added mitigation features.
Deliverables

Native editable SolidWorks 2024 or newer files: full assembly (.SLDASM) + every individual part (.SLDPRT). Files must be fully parametric with clean, logical feature history so dimensions, hole positions, lengths, or features can be easily changed later.
STEP 214 export of the complete assembly and all individual parts.
Print-ready STL files for every single component (bottom electronics tray, extended top plate, and any fairing/shroud pieces). These STLs must be:
• 100% manifold / watertight (zero mesh errors, no holes, no non-manifold edges)
• High-resolution mesh (deviation ≤ 0.02 mm for smooth professional prints)
• Correctly scaled in real-world millimeters
• Properly oriented for 3D printing (flat base where practical, support-friendly)
• Ready to upload directly to Xometry with no repairs, fixes, or Meshmixer work needed
High-resolution rendered images from multiple angles (full assembly + exploded view recommended)
Short assembly notes (1-page PDF or text) covering standoff installation, WiFi module mounting, antenna bosses, cable routing, and vibration-damping details
Up to 2–3 rounds of revisions included

Important note for the designer: I am an AI developer, not a CAD dev. The SolidWorks files are my long-term editable master files. The STLs must be perfect the first time.
