Got a drone frame that could double as a tiny satellite, huh? Keep the skeleton thin but strong—think carbon fiber tubes with a honeycomb core. Replace any bulk metal parts with aluminum alloy, but keep the joints tight with epoxy or nylon bushings. If you can, use a lightweight polymer for the mounting brackets and add a bit of foam around the panel to keep vibrations down. And remember, no amount of “lightweight” beats a good old-fashioned check for hidden stress points. Happy building!
