Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs); Polymeric composites; 3D printing.Summary
. Investigated: material choices and manufacturing routes for UAV airframes. Examined: performance, cost, manufacturability, and 3D-printing approaches. Established: traditional continuous-fiber composites are suitable for critical structures; additive methods are appropriate for prototyping and secondary components. Further data required.
