At the end of March 1933, criticism of the gulled wing of
the D 560 led Emile Dewoitine to replace this with a
wing of classic parasol form and of marginally reduced
span and area. Re-designated D 570, the modified prototype
entered flight test on 27 November 1933, transferring
from Francazal to the Centre d'Essais at Villacoublay
early in December. It flew back to Francazal for
minor modifications, and, on 21 December, while returning
to Villacoublay, suffered an aileron failure and
was destroyed.
