10-Inch Drone Frames
10-Inch Drone Frames
22 products
10-inch frames carry 10-inch propellers, and they come in two families. Long-range FPV frames in carbon fibre are built to lift a large battery or a payload over distance. The 450–550 class multirotor frames — F450, S500, F550 — are the classic platforms for a first GPS build on 1045 props. This page collects every frame in our Frames range sized for 10-inch props. Decide which family you are building, then check the motor mount and how much room the frame leaves for the battery.
How to choose a 10-inch frame
- FPV long range: folding and fixed carbon frames with a wheelbase around 410–440mm. They take large FPV motors, a 30.5×30.5mm stack and a 6S pack on top or underneath.
- 450–550 class: glass-fibre or carbon frames with a built-in power distribution board on many kits, room for a GPS mast and landing gear. Quad (F450, S500, X500) or hexacopter (F550, S550).
- Motor mount: 10-inch FPV frames usually take 19×19mm or larger patterns for 28xx–31xx stators; F450-style arms take 16×19mm for 2212 motors.
- Arm thickness and material: 5–6mm carbon arms on FPV frames resist twisting under a heavy pack; glass-fibre arms are cheaper and easier to replace.
- Folding: folding frames pack flat for transport, at a small cost in stiffness.

Compatibility
A 10-inch FPV build typically runs 2810 to 3115 stator motors at roughly 800–1100KV on 6S with tri-blade 10-inch props and a 4-in-1 ESC rated for the current. An F450 or S500 runs 2212 motors of 920–1000KV on 3S or 4S with 1045 props and 30A ESCs. Check the frame listing for the maximum prop size before buying props: some kits clear exactly 10 inches and no more.
Frequently asked questions
- What motors suit a 10-inch FPV frame?
- Stators from 2810 to 3115 at roughly 800–1100KV on a 6S battery are the common choice. Larger stators carry heavier payloads; check the frame's motor mount pattern before ordering.
- Is an F450 a 10-inch frame?
- Yes in prop terms: the F450 and S500 are designed around 10-inch 1045 propellers on 2212 motors. They are multirotor platforms for GPS and camera builds rather than FPV long-range frames.
- Which battery does a 10-inch build use?
- Long-range FPV builds usually fly a 6S LiPo of 4000mAh or more, or a 6S Li-ion pack for endurance. F450 and S500 builds fly a 3S or 4S pack of 2200–5000mAh.
