Oh great, as a newbie looking to move to a FW this is not the post I wanted to read!
Its the exact post styles you want to read. Gives you an idea of how different people found ways to be somewhat proficient with backing up the trailer. I too am starting to learn to watch the wheels and check for clearances vs watching the trailer which is how you handle an open or enclosed race trailer.
Beyond that the manuvering ability of the 5th wheel is fine, once you find the best way to stay "on track" and remember that the initial reaction to your steering input is delayed compared to a tag.
