Time travelling is a whole lot of fun and brought back so much nostalgic memories that I'm almost tearing up thinking about them 🥲
I hope you find at least some of the advice useful and don't have to make the same mistakes I did to learn the lesson

Thank you so much for all the support recently, to give back as much as possible back to you, I've put everything from this video into this downloadable book here 👇 brodiereed.store/fpvguidebook

I'm going to break my own rule of no longer commenting on your videos, to leave, well, a comment. As a body of 'advice' I pretty much agree with all of this. Nice work. One thing I would tell people is... "If you are looking to get into the hobby, do not get stuck in talking to people about things like 'range' and 'packet rates' and 'latency'. When you go and fly for the first time, none of that means diddly-squat and for 99 percent of pilots, it never will". Nice work again Mr Reed.

Been flying FPV since 2020 and drones since 2014. ALL of these tips are 100% on point. Great stuff! Tiny Whoops made me spend more on any other drones lmaooo
-
These are some solid asf tips. I am at the stage of making a more compact setup now for the exact reasons you listed. Great video, keep em coming!

Rates, they really are as important as people think. This is where a whoop comes in, you can sit in front of your pc, fly your house... come back and adjust your rates, again, again, again... and you'll learn what the changes do, and eventually you'll find something that suits you. You'll get the right feeling, that connection, they really are personal.

Great content Maan, as always. And I'm here as lots of us because of the 11 advice. Your video quality and your sincere opinion about the panorama are super valuable and are saving me a lot of time and money on the hoby as a newbe. Again, thanks for the content, and keep it real :)

Thank you

One piece of advice i could understand is become comfortable trying new rates, drones etc
-
Great video, man. Great explanation to everything als.
-
In still in progress but every thing in this video are very useful
-
Hopefully Brodie finds the time machine, or this may be the last video uploaded for some time. The time travel thing is great concept. Could be exceptional for learning, just rewind to undo after each crash!

The Size one is for sure a point, my wife and i are also Divers so we allready got 1 big Case of diving gear My wife hates that i have half of another case with my drone 😬

That’s a damn good video I just watched! I have a 100 hours in Velocidrone and just now I’m saving up for my first fpv drone. If anyone has experience with flying a freestyle 5 inch and tinywhoop drones, which one should a beginner like me go for? I’m really not too sure because I like the inertia the 5 inch quads in the sim have. Being able to fling yourself and do whatever dodecahedron Rubik’s cube and only then feeling your quad begin to fall is really appealing to me. 😆

Nice job bro!

I mean, I've flown maybe 20 hours and could have told you the same thing... I also disagree with #8 6:35... There are many reason to build your own drone such as knowing how to repair, and having some respect for the craft. The issue we are seeing are everyone buying bind and flys and taking them to Stadiums, getting legislation introduced, and then they quit anyways since it was a gift from their wife's boyfriend, and there is no real attachment to the hobby besides "flying where I shouldn't".

What are the names of the people you trust about drone reviews again who are the ogs
