ImpulseRC ApexDC 5″ FPV Frame Kit
**This is the ApexDC (Dead-cat) you may be interested in the ImpulseRC Apex Compressed X design or the Mr. Steele ImpulseRC ApexDC light-weight!
Experience the evolution of the “deadcat” frame with the ImpulseRC ApexDC EVO. This premium 5-inch frame is meticulously engineered for FPV pilots who demand a flawless, prop-free view for freestyle and cinematic videography, without compromising on the balanced flight characteristics of a true X frame. It is the ultimate foundation for a no-compromise FPV drone kit, packed with innovative, professional-grade features.
The “No Compromise” Deadcat Design
The ApexDC EVO features a unique and innovative arm geometry that keeps the front and rear motors aligned in the beloved compressed-X layout. By using standard 5″ Apex arms in the front and 6″ arms in the rear, it achieves a perfectly clear view for your HD camera while maintaining the balanced handling and predictable feel that the Apex frame is famous for. This is a deadcat frame without the classic handling drawbacks.
Premium Camera & HD System Mounting
Your expensive camera and video transmitter are protected by best-in-class hardware. The redesigned aluminum camera mount, paired with TPU insulation inserts, firmly locks your 19mm micro camera in place and allows for 4 different mounting positions to perfectly accommodate your lens. For digital FPV systems, the ApexDC includes a die-cut mylar insulator and non-conductive POM hardware to completely isolate your HD VTX from the carbon frame, preventing dangerous electrical shorts.
