FAQ
Will the foam damage the drone during transit?
No. Kexin uses 45 kg/m³ PU foam with CNC precision cut (±0.2mm). Drone body, batteries, and controller each have dedicated cavity. Foam absorbs shock before reaching equipment.
Can I use the case for airline transport?
Yes. WL8-4123 and WL8-5023 are within airline checked luggage size limits. TSA-approved padlock compatible. Some airlines require battery separate (M30 TB30 is 274 Wh, exceeds 100 Wh airline limit, must be shipped as cargo with proper UN3481 declaration).
How do you handle foam design for DJI Matrice 30?
Send DJI Matrice 30 (or M30T) outline DXF or 3D model. Kexin engineering team creates foam design with proper cavity dimensions, cable routing, accessory slots. You approve 3D render before foam production.
What about the H20T or L2 payload?
H20T and L2 are common M30 payloads. Foam can be designed with dedicated slot for each. Additional payload slot adds USD 5-10/case to foam cost.
Can I add my company logo on the foam?
Yes. Silk-screen logo on foam top layer: USD 2-3/case at 500 MOQ. Custom color also available.
