Build a slammed, nimble racer or a lightweight freestyle rig with the BQE 5AFX V2. This 5-inch True-X frame is a high-performance machine based on the popular BQE 3AF body. It might not be the most crash-proof frame in the lineup, but as the BQE team says, it’s quick and sexy.

Performance-First Design The 5AFX is engineered for agility and speed. The True-X geometry provides a perfectly balanced and symmetrical flight characteristic, making it incredibly responsive and predictable in the air. The slim, low-drag arms and compact body are designed to be a lightweight platform that can change direction in an instant, perfect for competitive FPV racing and high-energy freestyle.

V2 Upgrades & Builder-Friendly Features Version 2.0 has been refined for a better building and flying experience. It now features flush-mounted press nuts for a cleaner look and a more secure build. The slotted arms allow for a fast, single-bolt arm swap when using a 20x20mm stack, making track-side repairs a breeze. The frame offers incredible versatility with dual 20x20mm mounting positions and a front 30.5×30.5mm option, accommodating a huge range of electronics.

Key Features:

• Agile True-X Geometry: A perfectly symmetrical layout for balanced and responsive handling, ideal for racing and freestyle.
