I am making a quad-copter for raspberry pi. I have the physics engine build, but I need a way to control the quad-copter. So I basically need to send about 20 unsigned Integers from one pi to the other pi wirelessly, about 20 times a second. I plan on using RF 433 but there is almost no documentation on this online (other than 433 utils). Is RF 433 fast enough to send that much data a second? What is the XBEE module? Would that work better than 433 communication? Is the ZigBee the same thing? I'm kinda new to communication. I would prefer that it can send data at ATLEAST 50 meters, any more would be highly recommended.

Those 433Mhz modules are rather not suited for tasks like that. You would need 2 pairs, implement your own protocol for missed packets and so on. You might consider nRF24l01 as way more suited solution. Specially those with external antennas
