Description

The infamous ImpulseRC Apex frame has been shrunk down into a micro-size platform!

The micro Apex retains all the unique innovations of the original Apex such as zero arm slop/resonance, compressed X arm geometry, and an optimized center of gravity.

This frame is capable of sub 250g flight and can be outfitted as a micro long-range rig or a freestyle ripper!

Only includes carbon, hardware, and accessories specified below.

We also carry the Micro Apex 4" Frame!

Reviews

Pretty sweet little frame

"I love this little guy. I also purchased the whoop brace kit and printed some slammed ducts along with all the other ImpulseRC prints and built a pretty sweet little whoop. I don’t fly it as much as my Cinelog35 but for a 3” whoop in 6s, it’s a ripper."

Frame great, hardware so-so, made it under 250g

"Frame was great and carbon is nice quality. Even had diamond files to finish the edges. But this is a 20x20 only stack size so select carefully and bottom screws must be flush for the arm attachment requiring using impulserc screws. Hardware was so-so: m2 stack screws were soft and heads stripped on tightening the nylock nuts this forced me to use the supplied m3 hardware which was solid and buy new fc+esc w m3 holes, m2 motor screws were soft and I used my own hardware, m2.5 top and bottom screws had a few heads strip, the aluminum stand offs had two strip out which are impossible to source outside ImplulseRC. It’s a nice frame but don’t expect a quick build unless you note these issues with soft screws and standoffs, and no included plastic vtx antenna mount like the 4 inch model. ImpulseRC also does not sell m2.5 standoffs in their store, so it’s a warranty issue for me."

Worth it

"beautiful carbon frame had a couple issues. 2 out of they 6 standoffs weren’t threaded. Had to buy additional longer M3 stack screws other then that once but good frame"

Super durable little frame. Carbon

"Super durable little frame. Carbon was of good quality and have yet to snap an arm. Only downside is the factory camera mount plates but a 3d print easily fixes that."

"This frame quality is the best I ever had as a 3 inch quad this little ripper can do a lot"

Winston B. (5/5)

Frame is a nice as my 5" ones.

"I really like the frame. Too bad there wasn't a plastic antenna mount included. I pretty sure I can keep it under 250 grams, so far I think I can. There is 2 places to mount stacks. Can't wait to get it finished. I still have the motors, battery and props coming."

ImpulseRC Micro Apex 3"

"This 3" frame is a little ripper! Arms have zero flex, cf is super quality. They give you files for clean up, you wont need them. I am amazed at the amount of rip on 4s. Running BF 4.4 stock rates, stock tune and its on rails. StanFPV 3390's,Mamba F7 22 mini, Caddax Ratel 2, JHEMCU 1.6w VTX, HP Nano ELRS Rx, RDQ BN220 GPS, Misc 3d prints (I cant stop printing accessories) and of course the AWESOME frame to hold all of it. RDQ is my dealer!"

Q&A

is this compatible with DJI 03 air unit ?
It would take some doing. there is not a whole lot of room you would need a small AIO and even then it would be tight. I would say No unfortunately.
