Best Frames for FPV Racing, Freestyle and HD Digital

September 15, 2020 by GooseFPV 2 Comments

Clickable tables (above) will take a few seconds to load... CLICK tables for latest prices. DRONE RACING INTERNATIONAL FPV and T-MOTOR FPV motors were asked to vote for their ‘favourite racing frame?’. Rotor Riot Community and DRONE RACING INTERNATIONAL FPV were asked to vote for the ‘freestyle frame of the moment?’. OFFICIAL DJI DIGITAL FPV OWNERS GROUP were asked ‘what 5″ frames are you flying with the Vista? (with little or no modification)‘ and what is their ‘favourite frame that fits the air-unit?‘. Weight data sourced from product descriptions or Youtube channels. The majority of links on this table are affiliate links. I receive a commission (at no extra cost to you) if you make a purchase after clicking one of the affiliate links. Read our Affiliate Link Policy for more information.

Use our comparison tables to find a racing, freestyle or HD-ready frame with the greatest popularity, lowest weight or best value. The FlyFive33 Switchback race frame now has a HD Kit that can be used to mount a Caddx Vista. Next, explore the frame choices of championship winning FPV racers and freestyle pilots or continue reading for the opinions of individual FPV pilots.

 

Rotor Riot Community – 5″ Freestyle Frame Opinions

Ak47! Best frame ever!  Je

Fly a lightweight glide build and you’ll never buy another 150 gram frame  Cecil

Love my Flynoceros Sköll v3. Super customizable, can take a beating, and most importantly has a lifetime warranty  Chris

Alien/Apex/Reverb/Martian for the poor. Easy to tune, flies great and takes a lot of torture  Leonardo

Apex, BotAFX, and Acrobrat  Jacob

ANYTHING FLYNOCEROS!!!  Josh

Source one, it’s open source, everyone cuts it and it’s a fraction of the price of the other frames and will probably fly just as good! Save your money for better components or replacing arms. Don’t fall for the bait and switch warranties that are a pain in the ass to use, leave you waiting for parts and some are limited time only  Cody

I do not want to name names. But I have 3 very expensive quads and one Source one v3 and the source is becoming my favorite quad. It is has very low frame noise which is great for tuning and handles really well. That said everything about fpv is so personal that this is just what is working for me  Dustin

 

OFFICIAL DJI DIGITAL FPV OWNERS GROUP – 5″ HD (Air-unit) Freestyle Frame Opinions

I almost bought the skyliner hd but all that gap and lack of standoffs under the top plate I decided not too. It’s a shame too because I thought it was a good looking frame. I ended up ordering the dji edition badger which is supposed to be here today. Hope it flys well with no vibrations  Frank

Readymaderc strix screech 5.5 & 6in 5mm boomerang arms & 97g w all titanium hardware added includes motor screws 🙂 MORGAN FPV YouTube if ya wanna see how they fly ….spoiler smooth AF  David
