Trusted by thousands of pilots.
"Folded into my hiking pack and flew 10 km out over the alps. RTH worked first try when battery sagged. Worth every penny."
"Sub-250g and the GM8 GPS locks 14 sats in seconds. Flawless cinematic shoots, no registration needed."
"Foldable arms are rock solid once tightened. Crashed it twice and still flies straight."
"30 minutes per 3S 3000 mAh 18650 pack. Pocketable, quiet, perfect for travel."
"Best long-range sub-250g on the market. ±0.05 mm prop clamps make a real difference vs stock GEMFAN."
"Customer service actually knows FPV. Helped me set up the GM8 GPS on day one."
FoldApe4 Long Range FAQ
Everything about the FoldApe4 Long Range.
A 4-inch MicroLongRange foldable design that shrinks 70% when folded — pocketable for travel and landscape filming. Sub-250g takeoff, ~120g bare drone, X-frame for symmetric handling, GM8 GPS for return-to-home, DJI 1504 long-life motor. The analog version costs roughly half what comparable drones go for.
The folding arms are locked in flight position with two screws once unfolded — once tightened, the rigidity is identical to a fixed-arm frame. Carbon-fibre arms plus carbon-fibre prop clamps with ±0.05 mm precision metal sleeves eliminate the vibration and folding issues of typical foldables. Even hard freestyle flips and crash tumbles will not collapse the arms.
20 minutes on a 3S 1150 mAh LiPo, 30 minutes on a 3S 3000 mAh 18650 pack. Up to 10 km link range when paired with the DJI O3 Air Unit. Top speed reaches 105 km/h. Weight stays under 250 g at takeoff including the recommended 1150 mAh battery.
INCLUDED: 1× FoldApe4 drone (assembled, GM8 GPS, DJI 1504 motor, X-frame), 1× grey velvet pouch, 1× accessory pack, 1× spare-screw pack, 1× logo sticker, 1× manual card. NOT INCLUDED: battery (3S 1150 mAh or 3S 3000 mAh 18650 recommended), ELRS-compatible radio transmitter, FPV goggles, LiPo charger, DJI O3 Air Unit (the analog VTX version is sold separately). Plan for these accessories before your first flight.
A larger GPS antenna receives a stronger satellite signal and locks onto more sats, faster — that translates to a more reliable Return-to-Home and a tighter position hold. On long-range missions over open terrain or water, the larger GM8 module is what gets the drone home when the link drops or a battery sags unexpectedly. We took the few extra grams in exchange for safety.
Yes for recreational pilots — the FoldApe4 takeoff weight stays below 250 g with the recommended battery, placing it in EU Open Category A1 with minimal restrictions and no registration in most EU countries. The analog VTX must be configured to 25 mW maximum on French airwaves, and FPV immersion requires a dual-pilot supervision setup. Always verify your local national aviation authority before flying.

Sky beast.
This thing rips. Zero lag, 10km range — paid for itself on the first shoot. ELRS link rock solid even past treeline.
FoldApe4Bali day-one banger.
Packed it in carry-on to Bali. Flew 10km out over the ocean on day one. Flawless link, GPS lock instant. The folding frame survived a sandy beach landing.
FoldApe4Sub-250g freedom.
Under 250g means no registration headaches across most of the EU. Unfold, bind ELRS, fly. The freedom is unreal compared to my 5-inch.
FoldApe430 minute flights with 18650.
30 minutes flight time with the 3S 3000mAh 18650 pack. Twice the air time of my old 5-inch freestyle build. Long-range cinematic content unlocked.
FoldApe4Whisper quiet, brutally fast.
105 km/h in acro mode and still whisper quiet. The 4-inch props are way more efficient than expected. Incredible build for the price.
FoldApe4Rock solid, minor camera tilt wish.
Foldable arms are genuinely rigid under full throttle — not a flex gimmick. Only nit: would love a wider camera tilt range out of the box. Otherwise outstanding.
FoldApe4Almost perfect travel rig.
Battery indicator could be brighter under direct sunlight. Apart from that the GPS lock and ELRS range are everything I hoped for. Great day-trip rig.
FoldApe4Changed my approach to FPV.
Coming from a 5-inch this thing changed how I think about long-range. Pocketable, sub-250g, 10km link. Travel-friendly perfection.
