If you are looking into frames for your next racing quad, definitely consider the Five33 Switchback. The design of Evan Turner and Armando Gallegos is very well thought out and the frame is very rigid and lightweight.
The build is for a local, KokoblokoFPV, who selected and sourced all the parts you see in this video. You probably know him already from our VRx module comparisons: mutefpv.com/7p8ks

[@steffenfpv5579]

that was the best build video ive ever saw

[@muteFPV]

Thank you very much! :D

[@donphobos]

Watched it again, still amazing build and video.

[@muteFPV]

Thank you very much!

[@mleitner0]

I just found this channel Love it. Your angles and detail to object location are FREEKING amazing. Keep it up.

[@muteFPV]

Thank you very much! I am happy you liked it :D

[@sabeamixtades6658]

Nice filming, nice edit, clean & sweet! Awesome JOB!

[@muteFPV]

Thank you very much!

[@MojoPapiFPV]

Hope Evan Turner sees this and revises the package to include some of your mods/hacks.

[@muteFPV]

I hope he does too :P I think that the frame kit is perfect as-is (and at a very good price). The SFG mounts are an easy fix (if necessary) and if they shipped them the way I used them it would definitely increase cost. It would be great to have a battery pad included though, that fits both the 30,5x30,5 and the 20x20 holes.

[@flo-ridafpv5713]

I don't race...but I watch n like....soothing lol

[@muteFPV]

Thank you!

[@blackmennewstyle]

Damn, that was some serious flying at the end boss

[@muteFPV]

Thank you mate! Just to be clear, the pilot flying was KokoblokoFPV, not me :)

[@jorgeromero4680]

what are these sfg mounts? I think you missed a cable on your crossfire module. Needs 4 (rx, tx). I would like to say that sometimes instead of using heatshrink you can use conformal coating to avoid components touching other components. The way you attached your antennas is horrible near the frame.

[@muteFPV]

The SFG mounts and braces are side force generators and are supposed to improve cornering. I did not miss the cable, the pilot this build was meant for did not need the telemetry side of crossfire so I used only one. This pilot also requested that the antennas are as protected as possible, on the frame arms - durability is far more important and the range is more than enough for a racing course. As for conformal, yes, you could do that too - but if a component touches on the frame, vibrations may slowly remove the coating and you end up potentially shorting that component. Heatshrink is a very good and easy way of protecting non-stackable boards like the VRx and Rx in this case.

[@kokoblokoFPV]

@@muteFPV like you give a fuck about telemetry when you racing ;p

[@AliGreenFPV]

Awesome video! Looks neat and light, will have to try this one. Btw, how narrow are the arms? I know the are 5mm thick but these look so narrow. How dose it behave in crashes?

[@muteFPV]

Thank you! I don't have it here anymore so I can't measure it for you. Many local pilots fly with this frame and they say it is pretty robust with the SFG plates. I have seen broken arms but after very hard crashes. Everything breaks if you crash the right way anyway :P

[@AliGreenFPV]

@@muteFPV did R&D with a custom design for the past 3 years now, so don't get me started on broken arms and stuff :)) Thanks man for the reply

[@muteFPV]

Oh tell me more, tell me more! What custom design? ;)

[@DavidHanniganJr]

You've never had the high-voltage running through that ESC board interfere with the rx's ability to receive?

[@muteFPV]

The pilot this build was meant for (KokoblokoFPV) already had an identical build with no Rx issues.

[@DavidHanniganJr]

@@muteFPV Yeah, cuz I used to think, 'Man that's the best place for a RX!" But a couple crash quads (due to interference) later, and I don't think so no more. At least not without some kind of anti-interference plate betwixted them anyways.

[@billyshears9714]

Yoooo??!! Why does my switchback weigh 313g with props and batt strap too

[@muteFPV]

Hmmmmm what parts did you use that are different to mine? Any additional 3D prints? Did you use the same SFG side plates or the bigger ones?

[@billyshears9714]

@@muteFPV probably the 37g emax eco ii motors

[@kokoblokoFPV]

thanx for the build i will crash it as hard as i can

[@muteFPV]

I am sure about that :P

[@onclefly8450]

Hi, nice for the race ? 😃

[@muteFPV]

Ask KokoblokoFPV :P

[@ЕвгенийМельник-г2ш]

👍👍👍👍

[@muteFPV]

😀😀😀😀

[@MojoPapiFPV]

Koko would shave a ton of time off his laps if he tuned that quad.

[@muteFPV]

He already has :) He will upload more footage and his settings on his channel
