Apex shatters the glass ceiling in freestyle frame design
Through a process of continuous refinement and always seeking improvement, we have created a new generation of freestyle frames. The Apex doesn't compromise on rigidity or durability, so you never have to choose between safety and performance.
Unique design elements, new to the FPV world, make construction and maintenance easier than ever. The strength of the chassis itself is increased, while offering much better protection for your investment in flight electronics.
Desing of the APEX arm
The arms of an FPV frame are the key structural component that translates thrust from the engines to the bulk of the aircraft's mass, which is attached to the body of the frame. The design of the arms and how they are attached to the body is one of the most vital aspects that influences the performance of an FPV frame.
There are several problems that can occur with existing tonearm designs that can lead to poor performance, tuning difficulties and additional costs. The Apex addresses all of these issues with a new, simple and unique design that eliminates any tonearm slope and dramatically increases durability.
Perfectly symmetrical
Symmetrical arms allow one side of the part to be pocketed without introducing the need for separate left and right arms, requiring multiple replacement parts. We use a pocket instead of a hole under the motor to increase durability and incorporate a nut to simplify attachment and avoid clearance issues under your stack.
Simple maintenance
The flight electronics are mounted to the upper main plate using countersunk bolts. This completely decouples the tonearm attachment from the electronics mounting. The arms can be replaced using two bolts without any disturbance to your stack.
Shoulder bolts and threadlocker
Apex key
At the apex of a masonry arch a keystone locks all the stones in place and allows the arch to support weight and be self-supporting. A keystone is a hallmark of strength and good design, the Apex FPV frame is no different and the carbon keystone sits at the heart of the frame to distribute forces applied to the arms.

Under the 24-month Legal Guarantee, Drone24Hours is responsible to the consumer for any defects in conformity that cannot be detected at the time of purchase.
The lack of conformity exists when the product is not suitable for the use for which it is normally intended, does not conform to the description or does not possess the qualities promised by the seller, does not offer the qualities and performances usual for a good of the same type, is not suitable for the particular use desired by the consumer if brought to the attention of the seller at the time of purchase and accepted by the seller (art. 129 of the Consumer Code).
Any lack of conformity which becomes apparent within 24 months of the date of purchase of the goods must be reported within 2 months of the date of discovery of the defect.
Unless proven otherwise, it is presumed that any lack of conformity that becomes apparent within 6 months of delivery of the goods already existed on that date. In the event of a lack of conformity, the consumer has the right to have the conformity of the goods restored, free of charge, by repair or replacement (art. 130 of the Consumer Code).
The consumer may ask, at his choice, the seller to repair the goods or replace them, free of charge in both cases, unless the requested remedy is objectively impossible or excessively expensive compared to the other. Repairs or replacements must be carried out within a reasonable time from the request of the Consumer; the average time for returning the product to the Consumer is 20 days.
If Drone24hours is unable to return the repaired product within the maximum period of 60 days, the consumer may request one of the alternative remedies (replacement, termination of the contract, price reduction).
Drone24Hours will send the product for any repairs to the Technical Assistance Center authorized by the Manufacturer.
What happens if the Service Center does not find the lack of conformity?
If the lack of conformity is not found, Drone24Hours will communicate the estimate to the Customer, who can decide whether or not to carry out the repair at his own expense. In this case, any transport costs and diagnosis of the defect requested by the Assistance Center will be borne by the Customer.
