Description
The Five33 Switchback Classic is designed to meet the needs of today’s top pilots. In its lightest configuration, it comes in at 55 grams while still having 5mm arms, a stiff, wiggle-free mid-section, and both 20×20 and 30×30 mounting options. The Switchback has a unique Side Force Generator (SFG) mounting system that allows pilots to modify the flight feeling of the craft while adding minimal weight and complexity. Pilots can opt to run SFGs for tight technical tracks or opt to SWITCH BACK to a nude configuration for windy days or when they want to cut weight. Pre-order today to be the first to fly the nation’s top race frame.
For future-proofing our camera solution and maximizing weight savings, the Switchback ONLY fits NANO size cameras.

The switchback is a solid frame that is light but can take abuse. I’ve been flying my fleet of switchbacks for several months now and have yet to break anything. It has plenty of room to build in and is easy to use any stack with. Overall, the switchback is a great frame that I would definitely recommend.

One of my top two race frames. Love the switchback and Fl1 Arc One frames. Both super solid however the switchback has way more options and much lighter weight. With the sfgs my switchback weighs the same as my arc one. If I put the kinetic aerial box frame on the arc one fuggetaboutit she weighs about 30g more. All depends on track design but much prefer the switchback. The light weight kepts the efficiency up and at the end of a 2 min race I have more lipo left than I do on the arc one with the same components, hyperlite e 2207.5 1922’s and a millivoltosd and hobbywing 40a esc. So far I haven’t been in any really bad crashes but the ones I have the frame held well and I’ve yet to break an arm, Highly recommend the switchback if your looking for a super solid race frame with tons of options. Definitely worth more than the price!

All I want to do is fly Switchbacks! Flawless tolerances. Flies like a gyroscope. Perfect control and nearly unbreakable. The SFGs are like a smoothing algorithm. Turns it into a sim drone. This frame is absolute perfection. More please!

The beat frames I’ve ever used. Tuning is easy, arm swaps are easy, building is easy … what else do you need?
