Gemfan Airgates – Orange Foldable Flight Gate for FPV Training and Drone Racing

Gemfan Airgates Orange (150 × 150 × 120 cm) is a flight gate for creating FPV drone training and racing courses. Its orange colour helps mark the passage, while a foldable design makes course equipment convenient to transport and store between sessions. The gate can be used to practise individual control techniques or as part of a course with several obstacles.

Gemfan Airgates gives pilots a clear target for planning their approach, choosing flight altitude and preparing for the next manoeuvre. It is suitable for individual practice, club training and FPV racing courses.

Dimensions of 150 × 150 × 120 cm

Manufacturer-specified dimensions for Gemfan Airgates Orange are 150 × 150 × 120 cm. When planning a course, allow space for both the gate itself and clear approach and exit paths.

These dimensions describe the gate’s structure rather than just the clear opening. When assessing suitability for a drone, consider its overall dimensions, including propellers or propeller guards, and leave enough clearance for flight path corrections.

Orange Course Marker for a Clear Reference Point

The orange colour provides a visual reference that helps pilots identify the next passage. A well-chosen position makes the gate visible during approach, allowing control inputs to be planned before reaching it.

Visibility also depends on the background, lighting and FPV camera image. Position the gate so its outline stands out as clearly as possible from the approach direction. This supports smoother flight path planning and reduces the need for abrupt corrections immediately before a pass.

Practising Precise Approaches and Controlled Exits

With a single Gemfan Airgates gate, pilots can begin with straight approaches while maintaining a steady speed and altitude. The aim is to pass through under control and continue flying in the intended direction.

As skills develop, a turn can be added before the gate or another manoeuvre planned immediately after the exit. This brings the entire flight path into focus: exiting a turn, entering the gate and heading towards the next course section.

Repeating the same exercise allows successive passes to be compared. Pilots can assess whether their approach angle, speed selection or altitude control needs improvement.

Foldable Design and Carry Bag

Gemfan Airgates is designed as portable course equipment. Folding support poles and an included carry bag make it easier to pack the gate after training and transport it to the next flying location.

Manufacturer-specified package dimensions are 12 × 12 × 53 cm. The packed gate therefore takes up considerably less space than when assembled. This is practical for temporary training courses and for storing several gates alongside other course equipment.

Setup Accessories Included

The package includes one flight gate, two folding support poles, two guy ropes and one carry bag. Support poles give the structure its shape, while guy ropes help brace it during setup.

Consider ground conditions and local surroundings when installing the gate so it maintains its intended position. Leave sufficient space along the approach and exit paths to keep practice focused on the planned manoeuvre.

Flexible Layouts for a Complete FPV Course

Several gates and course flags can form a training track with straights, turns and consecutive passages. Adjusting gate spacing and orientation changes the difficulty without replacing all your equipment.

Gemfan Airgates is suitable for expanding an existing course or creating a new practice area. Its foldable design and included setup accessories allow the same gate to be used in different layouts and packed away compactly after use.
