IDEAFLY Apollo FPV GPS quadcopter review

The Apollo from IDEA-FLY is a ready to fly quadcopter perfectly designed for aerial video hobbyists.

With an integrated flight control system guided by GPS and wireless 5.8Ghz image transmission for FPV, this aircraft can be a very powerful substitute for the much-expensive Dji Phantom 2. The onboard GPS can provide advanced flight modes like precise position hold, fail-safe auto return, and semi-autopilot mode.

Flying with the Idea-Fly Apollo quadcopter can be remarkable even for professional pilots because is equipped with four high-performance brushless motors, ESC and carbon fiber propellers.

The aircraft mainly adopts carbon fiber as material mixed with some high-strength engineering plastics, effectively reducing weight and cost. This material makes your flight with the Apollo quadcopter fulfill all your expectations.

All-In-One quadcopters are allays a compromise between price and features. Of course, you can’t get same video quality with a standard onboard camera like with a GoPro Hero3+. There are five different versions of this quadcopter, two without any onboard camera. Apollo’s price range is from $300 up to $560.

  1. Please, someone can share the Apollo DVD with the IFlyTools?
    I want to make some custom settings on my Apollo quad, also I want to try upgrading the stock firmware.

  2. I’m wondering thought about the “C” version of the Apollo quadcopter together with the FPV transmitter.
    I hope I will got some smooth first person view over the 5.8ghz.
