Good to see you again Kelly, wish they had all these great options years ago when I started. Great gift idea for youth who might be interested in aviation.

Hello Kelly. Thank you for your recommendations for a beginner FPV solution. I only know from others that once you've gone digital, there's no going back to analog. For the price, the Baby Hawk is a no-brainer for a beginner.

Great video Kelly, If it was me I would go with the RTF Kit, It would be nice if they made a full kit for the bigger drones so you don't have #glitchyFPV , One thing you missed is RID on the > 250 gram FPV drones which would be an extra module you would need to buy. Keep up the great work.

I want an FPV so bad but I don't have a VO most of the time. So I am thinking tiny whoop indoors should be my first FPV purchase but I feel the longer I wait the lighter the HD will get.

Either GEPRC Rocket or Flywoo Cinerace are both good whoops and big enough to fly outdoors as well.

I'd rec starting on cheap end (Emax analog). Folks may not have the patience. Boy it sure tries my patience sometimes. Sometimes I get pissed with it and think "I should go all DJI, I bet it all works together better" but I'm sure even there there are issues along with an empty wallet. I have brand new zorro here I still can't get bound to a Tinyhawk III to save my life. Weird alchemy shit and no manuals. People need to dip their toes into that environment without spending to much at first.

I've spent hundreds on drones since 2019 and have only flown about 30mins in total 😢 EVERY time something messes up on me because of either settings being incorrect, bad weather, or something breaking or being out of date/incompatible and I've to spend hours figuring out what's even wrong. If you're new to fpv then you need a community to bounce off for problems as it's a very steep hill to climb on your own.

Man! I'm sorry to hear that. It is a pretty steep learning curve, but the more you do it, the easier it gets. Keep pluggin!

I've got a question & it might be a stupid question but here I go.... lol, Cameras? Do you have a video that tells what I'll need for a Lens, a board, both antennas, and a battery? I'm trying to setup a working camera that I can save direct to my laptop & I don't want to use the typical "Hero" or other commercial cameras. I need a list of components needed from the lens to the laptop storage. Drone Guys are the only place that I've seen kinda what I'm hoping to do & I bet I buy a drone before i finish. peace - Anyone who wants to help, please go ahead & share with me. thanks
