Five33 SwitchBack Review | Why I'm Switching

[@nikolatubic5266]

Is it true X, and whats an actual size of it (motor to motor shaft). Noone is talkin about it and i cant get a feeling if its too small. I kinda like 210+ size frame, and this looks realy tiny.

[@ahmadmirza6297]

I wonder how long the drone could actually fly?

[@JT-jy2sy]

These motors are superb and I have been using xing for the whole year. They are tough and durable. A bit on the heavy side.

[@RCOverKill]

I like this frame a lot. The synergy fc makes for the cleanest tightest builds, really nice. Have you tried the Super SlamNasty by Catalyst Machine Works? Also a very nice frame for 50 bucks, 60 with the front, and back brace. Ive crashed it a lot in the dirt, and hitting trees, and its holding up great. Thanks for the review.

[@TheRCAddict]

I haven't. It's a pretty generic frame in terms of there's nothing too special about it, which fits the 2018-2019 design period it came out. Curious about their new upcoming offering.

[@danielbolton3889]

😁

[@TiredoftheBS1562]

Any flight videos please.... i need a head spin.....

[@MCsCreations]

Really beautiful looking frame, dude! Great review!!! 😃 BTW, beautiful motors as well, hum? 😃

[@fpvraver]

Awesome 👏 I love watching your build videos!!!!! Where can I order 30 millimeter long nylon stack screws ????like the ones you used in this build?

[@sampathgajalakshmigajalaks5408]

Will 533 ship their items to India???

[@finleystannard]

Hey bud, how did you get the tbs sma into that mount? I'm trying to fit mine but I'm not able to

[@mrblue2392]

Would you recomend the larva x over the tinyhawk freestyle

[@TheRCAddict]

Haven’t used the larva so cant really day

[@MrSutekii]

I honestly won't fly a frame (a racing one anyway) that doesn't have vertical arms since I first flew the Karearea Talon. The difference was immediate to me, you just don't wash out like like you do on frames that don't have some form of vertical element to them for later grip; tried super lights etc and they just don't have that precision. All I'm flying right now is my Talon PR, but I do think this is an interesting design.

[@joecrupi9381]

Looking forward to the build video 🤘🏻

[@MaxBeamer]

holy crap whyd u pick the longest screw you have to move those press nuts lmao drove me nuts! that frame looks super nice tho wish someone would do something like this for a freestyle frame..

[@archer4922]

Love this frame! It’s a tighter build space than what I’m used to especially with fl1 esc’s. But love the 20x20. My build is a good 35+ grams lighter than my Flightone arc one race builds. The 3d prints are super nice. Love the turtle mode stick thingy. Lol. I haven’t crashed it much but it’s at least as tough as the arc one and I’ve yet to break anything on my arc ones. 👍 I haven’t tried the sfg’s yet on this 533 tho. I have the one for the arc one and while it does add a lot of weight to the frame it handles so so smoothly. Hard 180’s are a breeze with the box on it. And it took the last bit of prop wash I had out. But made prop choice harder due to the weight and killing my lipos faster. Which I’ve finally got to a point in racing to where at the end of 2 mins my lipos are down to 3.8v when I started racing my lipos would be at 4.0 when I landed after 2 mins lol. But with the box on the arc one even with a 1300 6s I’m landing at 3.65 or so. Anyway the switchback is much lighter and to me handles a hair better than the arc one without the box on it.

[@dogo_fpv3151]

Is there an extra part for the thing on the top in case it breaks

[@Barbaric_Iron]

WOW! The first quad is beautiful, All of them💯% Definitely a durable build! Thanks for the share bro!

[@MarkBakerFPV]

Hey Seth. How would you compare the xing motors to the hyperlite motors. Are they much better? On paper they are heavier!

[@TheRCAddict]

They are slightly better yes, get whatever is a better value for you. Most motors will kick just about the same.

[@BornIIfly]

& not the BetaFPV knight? Where do you race? Want to fly against you one day/some day ; ) Stay safe & take care.

[@bradyrc818]

RIP 2020 racing season :(

[@lebeast9158]

is the iflight stack m3?

[@jacobreezyfpv6287]

I just wanna no what's with the (turtle stick) Beatles horn over the camera just wondering what it's for

[@TheRCAddict]

Look up turtle mode

[@jacobreezyfpv6287]

@@TheRCAddict ok lol I got ya I no what turtle mode is I thought it was some kind of like air fin or something lol

[@jlarson42]

Great review. Impressive frame,good value. 🤓

[@dronereviewman9580]

Looks really cool!!!! Sweet build!!!!

[@bro9654]

Just got my first race quad eachine x2020s

[@bennieleip579]

Why did you switch to this stick on the top from that fin isn't this less aerodynamic? And I thought that fin was also helping in the corners

[@TheRCAddict]

It’s about the same, it’s pretty much aerodynamically insignificant

[@quadbruh9636]

Come a long way from that old ZMR. Lol. Really nice builds.

[@quadbruh9636]

@Luciano Boden ok will do

[@Danimal-3D]

Great video bro

[@dronejunkie2378]

Wow I cant believe I wasn't subscribed. My bad. Here now. Fpv addicts !

[@bradyrc818]

With your Nexus frame I have 258g

[@ZylonFPV]

What’s the red horn on the top for? Is that to deflect gates? 😛

[@TheRCAddict]

Turtle mode

[@ZylonFPV]

The RCAddict right, yeah, underslung battery 🔋

[@nyx574]

and it rocks Torx hardware?

[@TheRCAddict]

No, standard 2mm hex drivers are used

[@angelfpv4825]

if that iflight esc can hold up with your skills im switching to 20x20 lol hahaha

[@TheRCAddict]

I haven’t broken any from too much power yet haha

[@angelfpv4825]

The RCAddict i just realised my builds are at 322g without a battery +220g for 6s 1250s is that too heavy?

[@jebrc]

Looks sick man

[@queenmichellelainejoyness3108]

waiting for your giveaways hehe

[@myyotube8497]

They dont ship to germany :(

[@TheRCAddict]

Are you sure? I know some German pilots have them, maybe from the EU warehouse?

[@myyotube8497]

@@TheRCAddict Of course i tried the EU warehouse. They dont wanna ship :(

[@Mondo_FPV]

Lukas Post flyfive33.eu definitely ships to Germany. The warehouse is in Germany. But currently frames are out of stock. Follow Five33 on insta to know when stock arrives in 1-2 weeks

Nice frame

Nice frame.

Great

[@t.m.c.teammulticopter5636]

what are you going to do when remote i.d. comes out you will not be doing anymore freestyle. and will be flying at an rc plane club only looks like a lot of hobbyists are going to pull out .FAA is talking about only getting parts from them like flight controllers everything has to be FAA approved so all amateur builds will be a thing of the past .i do not think the FAA will allow you to use Bang good parts as they are not FAA approved also you will need a subscription to a third party for your flight data ,also you will need phone data to broadcast all your information to law enforcement in case there is no wifi hookup

[@TheRCAddict]

As Chez says, most of us are already flying without HAM, Part 107, and FAA registration. I don't see how this new law will change too much for our community.

[@kokoblokoFPV]

533 gang bitches

[@stegasaur1]

what are you going to do with all that long range gear when drone remote I.D. comes out,and you will have to fly in an AMA flying field.if you add the remote id to your quad you will only be able to fly in a 400 foot bubble. so be careful on how much gear you buy for long range flying because i think Amazon,Fed-Ex, and all the other companies will probably win and will own all of the sky from 0-400 feet.and all quad copters,rc helicopters ,and fixed wings will no longer be allowed in the air-space and the hobby will die. check out all of the hype and whats going on with the hobby .it has everyone shuck up.even commercial flyers,the freestyle flyers will be the first to go due to the fact they must use a lot of ground and height for tricks. racers stay close to the ground and so they have the racing gates and cubes to go threw for now until AMA clubs decide no race course just fly in a circular pattern like all of the rc planes do,and finally the fixed wing guys will get into crashes due to the quads flying at the same field and some flyers deciding to stop and hover while the line of sight guy flying the fixed wing will crash into the quad.. so i would like to know what you think of our hobby in the near future if it is worth buying all that gear and in the end loose it all due to air-space politics.

[@Christheawsome3]

What you are talking about is not set in stone and could change. Everyone flies without a ham license which means that 99.9 pilots are already flying illegally. If it does get implemented it's hardly gonna make an impact.
