The design and quality of this frame is the best in the industry, which is probably why it’s always sold out. I was fortunate enough to purchase two, and I’m grateful they re-opened sales to the U.S.

Built to Survive.
Tight gap. Full send. You're not thinking about your frame. You're thinking about the line. That's ERA.
This frame has been our bestseller for 1.5 years. The reason is simple: it survives. Crash into concrete, turtle out, keep flying. No walk of shame to retrieve your quad.
This is the O4 Pro Version. Same ERA. Same durability. Built specifically for the DJI O4 Pro camera with stock plastic housing. The larger O4 Pro camera required a redesigned cage and extended bottom plate front. Everything else stays the same.
Crash. Turtle. Fly. Team pilot @nils.vo on ERA.
The Cage: Why Injection-Molded Nylon?
The visual signature of the ERA is also its functional core. We don't use aluminum (too rigid) or 3D printing (too weak) for our camera protection. We invested in high-pressure injection molding because our testing proved it superior to every other method. 3D printing creates layers, microscopic weak points where cracks eventually start. Injection molding creates a solid, uniform polymer structure with equal strength in all directions.
Why nylon? It's the same polymer family used in downhill mountain bike pedals and high-end snowboard bindings. Parts that survive thousands of vibration cycles and high-velocity impacts without snapping. TPU is more elastic, carbon is stiffer and can chip on sharp impacts. Nylon sits in between: structural memory to take a hit and keep your camera exactly where you set it. It absorbs impact energy, flexes, and bounces back. It sacrifices itself so your electronics don't have to.
Beyond protection, this solid cage acts as a structural bridge. Combined with our split deck construction, the entire chassis becomes one unified, stiff block that withstands abuse.
The worst cage we've ever seen. One year of bashing by team pilot @scarce_fpv. Still functional.
Action Camera Mounting System
We fly 20°. That's why it's the stock angle. Five mounts available from 10° to 30° in 5° steps. One M3 screw out, swap the mount, done. The cage stays untouched.
Your FPV camera is separate and fully adjustable from 0° to roughly 40°.
Geometry & Handling
The ERA uses a Compressed-X layout to squeeze the frame footprint to the absolute minimum. This centralization of mass is what makes it feel snappy and locked-in.
Action cam sits close to the propline. This isn't aesthetic, it's weight distribution. The closer to center, the more responsive the quad.
One tradeoff: This geometry pushes props further out of your FPV feed compared to True-X, but they're not invisible. We prioritize balance and flight performance over a clean cinematic view. You will see prop edges in your camera.
Construction
Arms lock into the frame with a form fit. No slop, no play. The bottom plate is under tension from the center screw, adding stiffness without weight.
Need to access your stack? Leave the camera attached. Six screws out, top plate off, full access. Nothing to realign when you're done.
Every cage is checked by hand. Heat inserts installed with specialized equipment. No batch leaves without personal QA.
Material Standards
We build what we fly. That means no shortcuts on material grades. T700/T800 carbon mix with chamfered edges where it matters. 12.9 Grade YFS steel screws that don't strip. 7075 aluminum standoffs that don't bend.
What's Different on the O4 Version
- O4 Nylon Camera Cage: Redesigned for the larger DJI O4 Pro camera. Same injection molding process, same durability.
- Extended Bottom Plate Front O4: Longer carbon plate to match the O4 cage dimensions.
- Updated 3D Prints: O4 VTX Dual Antenna Holder, new TPU camera inserts.
What You're Getting
A frame that won't break in normal freestyle. Camera protection that actually protects. Hardware that won't strip, bend, or fail. A build experience that doesn't fight you. A quad that flies like it should.
Developed by pilots who crash, rebuild, and fly the next day. Every detail comes from real sessions, real crashes, real frustration with how things used to work.

Geiles Teil, bester frame bisher! Klare Kaufempfehlung!
Sadly the initial front cage was defective but I quickly received a replacement due to the awesome support team.♥️ I ended up switching my main quad to this frame from the original apex after just a couple days of flying. I am so excited about returning to the hobby with this frame… it also got me to upgrade my Fatshark hdo2s and now I’m gonna be rocking DJI G3 with o4 pro. Gonna need to buy more frames and try their motors too. (When the economy helps me out for once) Would highly recommend and also the creators.
Great frame, one of the most beautiful builds I've ever done.
Der stabilste Frame, den ich besitze
Really good frame,flies great. it’s fpv team helped us out by accommodating few special requests regarding delivery etc
Very nice frame,flies well. Best customer support and great community
Top
I may be a little obsessed 🤣
Der Hammer
Cool Design, still didnt fly it, but i think it will perform great! Thanks
Absolut geiles Teil. Schon viele Crashs überlebt und fliegt immer noch super. Habe ein Casting gedrückt, dass ich props out Condor fliegen kann ohne dass alles bei einem Crash dreckig wird, und dass die Antennen sicherer Verbaut sind. Fliegt super, schnell und einfach geil
Einfach Super
Bin mit dem Era Mini sehr zufrieden das ich den 5zoll auch noch genommen habe. Sehr zufrieden mit den frames von its fpv, es zahlt sich aus 💪🏻
Einfach Hammer! Der Era Frame ist mein erster selbstbau. Primär habe ich den Copter gebaut, um mich mal etwas mehr im Freestyle fliegen zu probieren. Ich bin jetzt schon 2-3 Mal gecrasht und der Rahmen hat nichts abbekommen. Dafür echt Respekt, da habt ihr echt ein klasse Frame entwickelt. Mal sehen, vielleicht kommt ja irgendwann noch ein 3“ Era dazu 😄 Klare Kaufempfehlung!
Beautiful frame, feel really strong love it
Very easy to build in. Very tight fit with the arms. One of the better frames I've ever built in. 👌
It’s great for smashing bricks and trees. HDZero Freestyle v2 version.
It’s great for smashing bricks and trees. Foxeer Reaper 2.5w / Foxeer Predator v5 version
Had no issues with the frame whatsoever. I’m really glad that you can find .stl files on the site so I can print the exact accesories I want at home. Overall great experience.
Top Frame! Bandoproof!
Beste Materialien, 100% Passgenauigkeit, easy zu bauen! Das Ding fliegt wie ein Brett! Das war definitiv nicht der letzte itsFPV Copter!
My second ERA 5” after losing one on a roof. Solid frames, fly great
Mein erster 5" Build. Spannend, nervenzerreissend, aber aufgrund der hervorragenden Verarbeitung super gelungen und er fliegt spitzenmäßig. Auch meine ersten Crashes hat er gut weggesteckt. Aber am allermeisten begeistert hat mich der Kundenservice von it'sFPV!! Ich kann mich nicht erinnern, wann ich das letzte Mal so top und vor allem geduldig beraten wurde. Ein großes Lob dabei vor allem an Nils - so hat der Einkauf richtig Spaß gemacht. Weiter so :))
This frame is a tight, compact tank. All quality parts suppiled with kit screws, carbon etc. 04 Pro cam protection is next level. AUW with 1000mah, full TPU bling, GPS and lipo buzzer 622g. Had a small issue with my order, issue was resolved swiftly and new part posted to australia promptly at vendors exspense. Top quality product backed up by great customer service.
Der Frame ist ein Tolles design und fliegt sich mega! jedoch hatte ich leider ein paar probleme beim zusammenbau da die arme sehr wenig toleranzen haben waren sie nicht leicht zu befestigen. und auch bei dem kamera cage haben die schrauben auch etwas span vom alugewinde abgetragen. Aber an sich, alles gut! Danke dass ihr diesen tollen frame designt habt
Store owner replied: Hey, vielen Dank für die netten Worte und dafür, dass du dir die Zeit für so eine ausführliche Rückmeldung genommen hast. Zwei Dinge möchte ich kurz klarstellen. Der ELRS-Antennenhalter ist nicht Teil des Frame Kits. Das steht auch so auf der Produktseite ganz oben: Elektronik, ELRS-Antennenhalter und Action-Cam-Mounts sind nicht enthalten. Es fehlte also nichts in deinem Paket. Und schön zu hören, dass die freien STL-Dateien genau dafür gut waren, dafür sind sie da. Die zwei XT60-Kabelhalter sind ebenfalls Absicht: Einer ist für AWG 12 ausgelegt, der andere für AWG 14. Je nachdem, welches Kabel an deinem Stack hängt, nimmst du den passenden. Dass die Arme sehr eng sitzen, ist so gewollt, der Frame hat bewusst wenig Spiel, und genau deshalb fliegt er so gut. Viel Spaß beim Fliegen.
Balanced, as everything should be. Flies like a Hummingbird.
High-quality frame. Finally, something that doesn't feel like typical Chinese mass production, but a genuinely well-made product with solid German quality. Strong, well-designed and very well finished. I'm very satisfied with it.
From New York with love!! It’s FPV!
Excelente calidad, se nota que el material es premium!!! Tengo amigos que lo tienen y es una muy buena opción. Saludos desde Argentina y felicitaciones por el desarrollo de este producto
Absolutely loving the ERA 5"! The build quality is excellent, and it feels incredibly solid and well-designed. The flight performance is smooth, responsive, and really enjoyable, especially when pushing it a bit harder. Everything feels thoughtfully put together, and the overall experience has been great so far. Definitely a great choice for anyone looking for a reliable and fun 5" FPV drone. Highly recommended!
Absoluter Top Frame macht Mega Spaß Wird nicht der letzte gewesen sein 👍🏼
My second ERA build, this one is with DJI O4 Pro, Vifly Finder in the tailmount, sturdy freestyle antenna mount, Mini M10 GPS in SharkFin, iFlight Borg inside with sidecovers, Xing2 2207 motors. Primary allround build. I chose 22mm deck height to better accomodate battery strap and protect FC. And maybe add more Juicy feeling 😁. Very good frame and flight feeling, EU based company as a bonus. 👍 FlySky
Excellent
Easy to build, fun to fly. Really enjoying the build so far.
Absolut geniales Konzept! Mega Frame, sehr individuell und super Service! Fliegt sich unglaublich gut und ist extrem Stabil! Bin gespannt was noch alles in Zukunft so kommt von FPV Era. Macht weiter so! 👍🏼
Wirklich geiler Frame. Vor allem der Cage für die Kamera. Wer denn kaputt kriegt muss wohl mit 200 Klamotten gegen nen Stahlpfeiler gekracht sein 🤣🤣🤣. Ebenfalls ne geile Sache das darauf verschiedene Sachen montiert werden können. Wie z.B. Lipo Schutz oder Aktion Cam. Sehr viel Zubehör dabei. Auch eine schöne Sache. Bester Frame ever 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
The making was extremely easy and everything turned out very, very well, the picture says it all.
Stabil wie immer
excellent product quality and service quality! I recommend!!!
