      Dude don't dream just do it! You can buy simpler fpv packages almost ready to go from places like readymaderc or getfpv. It all takes practice but with baby steps it's super fun and very safe.

    12:45 Yeah, in theory that’s what each cell is at. But their internal resistance could be vastly different (should be checking this every so often to keep them matched), which means one cell could be at 2.5 or 3 while another is at 4. And I’m sure you realize the danger that presents.
