Wassup guys, Thanks heaps for all the comments, so stoked to have a little community on here. If you have any questions just leave a comment and I'll reply. Link to my 5" Build in bio! Happy Flying, timbo 😎😎😎
Aw thanks heaps man! I had heaps of fun making the vid and it was cool to look back through all that old footage. Glad ya liked it and Merry Christmas!
absolutely epic crimbo - thanks for documenting the journey. Super satisfying to watch the learning curve.... what a difference some time, skills and most importantly, confidence makes!
Great inspiration, got rid of my mini 4 pro few weeks ago and got the dji FPV to give it a go, mainly to keep the goggles and controller and build a 5 inch once the inevitable happens. Subscribed and looking forward to more great tips and flying
bro i love your videos man.... you deserve so much love man... i can see that you are really good at throttle control. Just a suggestion.. how bout try racing too since you are good with throttle controll and flying low it can get you to find more people and get a lot more opportunities.... Just a recommendation much love and keep up man
Thanks heaps brother! I haven’t tried racing except for in the sim. Defo keen to give it a go , don’t have any HD Zero setups at the moment but will keep exploring for sure 👊
@@timbo_fpv You dont really need an HD zero setup actually but its best in the rracing theme you can try use like the old fatshark setup first to get the hang on the analog life cause its not the same cause in analog there are breakups where it can recover but in digital there are no breakups there are just freezing. you could try to use an old analog gpggle cause its just the way to start plus its cheap start anyways.. then when you have the time and oppurtunity then switch to HD zero so that you can fully maximize your capability in analogs territory
They're so strong - and if you learn the basics of building they are cheap and easy to fix. I'm still using the same one that I have in this video with no issues :) Best of Luck!
Great story and great flying, mate. I'm about 2 months into occasionally flying a tinywhoop but I'm starting to build a 5" now to get that fast floaty feeling. Keep it up!
WoW u did an amazing first year I am receiving my first drone in January, a mini whoop, well good luck in the futur and between I love all of the environment you fly in they are amazing 🤩
Oh man... there's soo many more. I swear I almost quit at the start when the I broke the whoop haha. But now having built the 5" crashing is really no issue.
@@timbo_fpv Would you say it was easy getting started with building the 5"? I've been thinking about building one for a while now, but I just don't want another month long project. I'm by no means a rookie with soldering and electronics, but I want the 5" to be build and flying in 1 week tops lol. xD
I would say it’s very doable. If you have all the correct tools and build parts you could do it in a day quite easily. Especially if you follow a tutorial. I’ve got a step by step for my 5” on my channel, otherwise Troncat has some good ones :)
Amazing journey and progress! I'm just starting out on the simulator and wondering how many hours did you spend on the simulator vs real flying to get to where you are now? Thanks and keep it up! Great video!
@TreyHam27I mean there heaps of options. If you have FPV experience and want to build one - I’ve got a step by step build of the one I’m flying here on my profile :) Otherwise look at Troncat - he’s got some great build vids.
@@timbo_fpv awesome! I’ve been flying some tiny whoops and I am hoping to build a bigger drone for the summer! Thanks. I’ll be sure to check those out!
Oh you’re the guy who dived the shard- then I checked the sub count. Lowkey shocked that you didn’t have hundreds of thousands or something. Sorry for the glaze but you rock mate
I would go for a smaller drone first 100%. Analog tinywhoops are awesome but if you want HD something like the Mob8 is great too. Best of luck, nothing like that first flight !
It depends on your budget and whether you want to go digital (more expensive) or analog. Download Liftoff (FPV sim) and connect your radio to learn the controls first. Kit I recommend to begin with is: Radio - Radiomaster Boxer or Pocket (ELRS) Goggles - Fatshark Scout (Analog) or DJI Integra (Digital) Drone - HappyModel Mobula8 (ELRS - Analog or Digital) If you're loving it you'll have great kit that you don't need to upgrade for ages too, and if not you can sell it on.
Fire video and editing! and epic piloting skills man! I start FPV this week with a little beta fpv and cannot wait! I am not sure if I will phase out of this so I will wait to buy a 5inch until I know I enjoy it. But dude your video is inspiration so thank you! Cannot wait to rip London with some small mini whoops
Oh man those first flights are so exciting. Defo just rip the BetaFPV until you’re craving something with more power. I’ve got a good group of London crew - hit me a DM and I’ll send you a link to our WhatsApp if you want.
@@timbo_fpv Hell yeah dude that would be great! I shall send you an email today. I am based in Essex but London is a quick drive or train ride. My betafpv was annoying faulty, however from what I managed to see and play it was great fun! So I ordered a Mobula8 with the DJI 03 kit 😅 so pumped and cannot wait
Awesome.... I want to get the avata 2 as my first fpv, do you think this is a good choice? Im not so much looking at getting into freestyljng, but cinematic fast low shots kinda like some of your clips
Really Great video ! I’m also in my first year of fpv and I can’t wait for what is to come! I’d love to know how you got your first little jobs in fpv :)?

Kept my gear super minimal man. At the moment it's Goggles: DJI Integra, Fatshark Scout (analog) Drones: 5" Build (full build video on profile), Mob6 2024 Controller: RadioMaster Boxer ELRS Action cam: DJI Action2 (Wouldn't use anything else for freestyle tbh this thing destroys the others) Hope that helps !
Wow that's impressive! Did you use a simulator for quite some time or right away on the field, and how often / what parts you had to repair and how easy / cheap / "fast" to get those shipped and fixed? Thanks!
I did around 12 hours in the sim before first flight I think. The 5” is so strong I’ve only ever broken two arms of the frame and a couple of motors. If you build one yourself it’s very easy to fix and super cheap. I’d recommend doing it that way 100%.
You are very similar to me, playing since March last year, but I have stopped playing for more than 3 months because I have no motivation to play anymore just flying on Pc
@@Sensei-Ollie This is what I'd recomend and you won't outgrow it too quick. Don't get the cetus kit. RadioMaster Pocket ELRS: $65 Fatshark Scout goggles: $180 HappyModel Mob8 ELRS: $110
What about motion sickness? Did you have any. I just bought my first fpv but motion sickness is killing me. It’s getting better but still I can’t fly to long.
That’s plenty! You can start cheaper and see if you really like it: Goggles: Fatshark Scout (analog) £160 Drone: Happymodel Mob8 (analog ELRS) £100 Controller: Radiomaster Pocket ELRS £60 See if you like it and eventually build your own 5” 👊
@ alright for a new freestyle drone should I go analog I do already have a DJI avata 2 with goggles 3 and fpv controller but I think of going analog with that one because of the latency

@@timbo_fpvim close to the same point😅. I have circa 20hours in sim,but now its getting boring,i have to fly outside😊. (Boxer radio i have,now i want buy the goggles L and a tiny whoop😊)
@@timbo_fpvIve been flying Avata 2 for a about 2 hours in full manual. I skipped the sim bc I think I'm badass or something. My drone is half covered in dirt but it still works lol. I can fly through soccer goals and around the field pretty fast
@@timbo_fpv the trick that helped me was to fly close by myself but with the goggles off, so just keeping my own eyes on the drone and getting used to stabilizing

Aw appreciate that man. Was fun to look back at the footage 👽✌️
Just realised I've watched loads of your vids when I was starting out. Great channel man, all the best to you!
The cinematics shots are on point man! I enjoyed every bit of this video. I've started recently on FPV and watching this is inspirational. TYVM
Appreciate that man! I come from a film background so getting the GoPro on the right setting etc felt natural. Enjoy your journey! ✌️

Greece is the best! Thanks heaps mate I’m glad you liked it 👊
Bruh this is awesome!!!! You're giving me the itch to resume flying again and get better!
Thanks man, was fun to look back on all the footage too. Defo get back out there! For me it’s very calming.
This vid (and another one just like this) made me order my first 5-inch just 2 weeks after getting a tinywhoop. Can't wait!
Hell yeah! It's the perfect combination having a tinywhoop and a 5". Also forces you to learn to repair yourself :)
The progress is insane man! Congrats!
Appreciate that brother! Just getting started 👽✌️
So cool seeing the progress! Some beautiful footage of special places ❤
Thanks sis ❤️❤️
That's pretty awesome progression. Magic happens when opportunity and ambition cross -> applies to anything in life. I'm on week 3 : )
You’re right mate! Week 3 is a great fun place to be - hope you’re loving it.
one of the best drone video i’ve ever seen
Aww man thank you. That inspires me to make more 👽✌️
So good. Even the first shot in the skatepark was really awesome. love it.

Sick I just got a radio master pocket crush and am super excited to start playing on the sim during my 4hr flight today. Keep inspiring!
Yes bro! Get into it! Sim is so fun and I still use it a bunch to learn new tricks. 10-15 hours and you're good to go IRL I reckon :)
Solid year mate and awesome footage.
Thanks heaps brother! Keen to make year 2 count 👊
Awesome progress and flying. I’ve been flying for about 16 months and I adore it and I know there are so any aspects I can improve. Keep ripping it.
Thanks man! I love it too and enjoy so many different types of flying. Such a cool sport :)
bro you might've inspired me to start my fpv journey
That’s what I wanna hear! Let me know if you want a hand picking gear to start with ✌️
Thanks for the video, very fun to discover, with some interesting information and several nice shots.

🤩
Excited for you mate , you’ll have a great time ✌️
those ocean shots were amazing definetly gonna get myself into FPV just for that, already fly tons of RC planes but thats amazing
Defo recommend! Nothing beats how immersive FPV is.

I also started with a cinewoop and when i got a freestyle drone i couldn't believe how smooth it was, 0 prop wash
Ah man yeah the whoop felt like a brick with propellers in comparison to the 5” haha.
Damn dude 3 quads right out the gate in less than 2 months is crazy 😮 🤑 really cool to see the progression!
Haha I know. I flipped both the Pavo and CL35 so now only have two quads! Just took a minute to find the right thing hey.

Amazing man, keep up the good work 😎
Appreciate that brother! Take it easy!
Would you advise going for a smaller drone first like you did or jump straight into the 5” ones? Im currently learning on the sim. Awesome video man 🔥
I would go for a smaller drone first 100%. Analog tinywhoops are awesome but if you want HD something like the Mob8 is great too. Best of luck, nothing like that first flight !

Thanks brother👽✌️
Great video and editing. What are you filming with on the 5"?
Appreciate that! The cinematic stuff is GP10 and the freestyle is DJI action2. The action2 is Elite for freestyle, weighs nothing.
Awesome.... I want to get the avata 2 as my first fpv, do you think this is a good choice? Im not so much looking at getting into freestyljng, but cinematic fast low shots kinda like some of your clips
I’d just get a 5” brother! Something like the iFlight Nazgûl with an o3 and ELRS and away you go. They just perform so much better than DJI drones.
I got the avata 2 and crashed it the same day and now the frame is bent😬
If you want to get one get the DJI Care Refresh
Other than that it’s awesome
Avata 2 I have is way less fun than my Pavo20 Pro. I only use my Avata as a back up.
5:59 That freestyle was fire! 😂
The modula 6 definitely seems fun to use.
Hahaha cheers bro. It’s soo much fun, especially for $100 or so!
I got the air 65 and air 75 tiny whoops they are so fun
So much fun, really keen to try the 75 actually :)
amazing quality on the first one? whats the drone and if its rreally like it or is it external camera ?
Hmm which shot you mean? It's likely just from the DJI o3 - if it's the first drone I was flying.
Really Great video !
I’m also in my first year of fpv and I can’t wait for what is to come!
I’d love to know how you got your first little jobs in fpv :)?
Great time to be involved in the hobby isn't it. I've worked in the film industry for a long time so had some friends get me onto a few FPV jobs.
Bro you are doing a great job! i will get my seccond 5inch and it is very hard to control it
Appreciate it man! I found my 5" really nice to control - maybe if you messed with the throttle ratio etc it might be a bit easier for you?
Great video, thanks for sharing! Do you do long distance?
I would really like to build a 7” for longer distance stuff but haven’t got around to it yet. Would be such a fun build tho.
How difficult was it to build and get the drone working. Everyone says its super hard as a beginner.
It wasn't too bad but definitely required some time and patience. There's so many good tutorials online you can follow along with.
Great recap video man! Good progress keep on try hard

Wow nice video, I suppose a lot of Simulator training as well?
Not really.. I think I did around 12 hours before that first flight. But it helps sooo much. Should do more for sure.

Goggles: DJI Integra, Fatshark Scout (analog)
Drones: 5" Build (full build video on profile), Mob6 2024
Controller: RadioMaster Boxer ELRS
Action cam: DJI Action2 (Wouldn't use anything else for freestyle tbh this thing destroys the others)
Hope that helps !

Is the oval at the start in Fremantle WA by any chance ?
It’s in London man! I am actually from Margaret River, WA tho!
@ the grass at the start and AFL goal posts definitely looks like Australia. I was thinking it looks like you had a holiday here at some point.
Question i have a bit of tech skills is it difficult to build a 5 inch fpv?
Not really - just pick a tutorial you like and follow it step by step. Just gotta be able to solder 👊
@timbo_fpv ty
How many packs did you fly a week? What about a day? How many batteries do you own?
I’ve got 4x6s 1300mah - for the year I’d fly 4-8 packs a week, but with a couple months gap. Then occasional weeks of flying most days too :)
@ same as me, although I’ve taken a big gap. I started in march. How much should I spend on a 5” bando basher?
Wow that's impressive! Did you use a simulator for quite some time or right away on the field, and how often / what parts you had to repair and how easy / cheap / "fast" to get those shipped and fixed? Thanks!

You are very similar to me, playing since March last year, but I have stopped playing for more than 3 months because I have no motivation to play anymore just flying on Pc
Oh for real? Maybe you gotta find some new places to fly or something ?

Get into it - really is such an incredible and therapeutic hobby. Let me know if you need a hand deciding what to buy to start with too.
@@timbo_fpvhey, im on an unknown budget but prolly under 300 buckaroos, im thinking cetus pro or x kit, any other critique or recommendations?

RadioMaster Pocket ELRS: $65
Fatshark Scout goggles: $180

@ I’ll probably get a more expensive transmitter and a less expensive pair of goggles, but thanks!
yea nice one :) RM Boxer is great
wow, it's great!
Appreciate that!
What about motion sickness? Did you have any. I just bought my first fpv but motion sickness is killing me. It’s getting better but still I can’t fly to long.
Ah sorry to hear that… honestly I’ve never had motion sickness but hopefully you get used to it and can disconnect screen from body.
Is the mobula 6 2024 compatible with the Betafpv lite 2 radio transmitter
Yes but needs to be ELRS version of the radio ✅
@ the expresss Lrs 2.4
Bro same issue with dji controller, I have disarmed my drone when I was flying over a lake ahah
It's a shocker man, I sold it and got the RM Boxer. Haven't looked back :)
@@timbo_fpv I'll check it out thanks, do you how is it the integration with DJI googles and o3?
It’s totally fine - you just have to cut the sbus cable on your o3 wiring :)
this is awesome progress timbo! I really want some friends to fly with been flying on my own for years now. anyone in kent?
Thanks man! I'm in London im sure there will be some crew up your way.
Nice! I just started about 2 weeks ago.
Keep the footage of those first flights it’s fun to look back on
Do you have any reccomendations to start fpv? i have about £1000 i can spent straight off but im looking to spent not too much
That’s plenty! You can start cheaper and see if you really like it:
Goggles: Fatshark Scout (analog) £160
Drone: Happymodel Mob8 (analog ELRS) £100
Controller: Radiomaster Pocket ELRS £60
See if you like it and eventually build your own 5” 👊
Is your 5” analog?
It’s digital - Runcam link/ wasp. Not too bad but not as good as o3.
@ alright for a new freestyle drone should I go analog I do already have a DJI avata 2 with goggles 3 and fpv controller but I think of going analog with that one because of the latency
@@ThieoKok I'd go digital for sure. DJI o3 system is great, and it will save you having to buy another set of goggles.
FIRE!!!!
Thanks mate !!
what was the 5inch drone you used
It’s a DIY build - I did a step by step video on my profile. Beast of a drone and costs like $300 👽✌️
What’s the e difference of the mobula 6 frsky version
Just the type of receiver I believe. I go ELRS because it seems easiest.
@ the mob 6 are out of stock everywhere
@ do you think the mobula 6 frsky version is a good beginner drone ?
I would go mob8 ELRS. Only get Frsky if your receiver supports it 👍 And best of luck!
@ would I need to do soldering for the mobula 8 to connect it to the radiolite 2 radio
Great video. I am actually at 8th week

It was a common issue with the v1 Pavo Pico - BetaFPV were legends and replaced it though 🙂
Nice video... maybe i will buy my own drone to play witam it
Do it 👊
@timbo_fpv first thing first... I have to buy my first drone and build it
How did you get your first Fpv job?
It’s definitely been easier for me because I already work in the film industry - so I’m able to tack some FPV footage onto jobs I’m already shooting.
How many total flight hours?
I couldn't really say man - I did maybe 12 hours in the sim initially and then flew maybe 4-8 packs a week on average.
@@timbo_fpvim close to the same point😅.
I have circa 20hours in sim,but now its getting boring,i have to fly outside😊.
(Boxer radio i have,now i want buy the goggles L and a tiny whoop😊)
@@timbo_fpvIve been flying Avata 2 for a about 2 hours in full manual. I skipped the sim bc I think I'm badass or something. My drone is half covered in dirt but it still works lol. I can fly through soccer goals and around the field pretty fast
That’s cool you were able to learn without the sim, there’s no way my drone would have survived that haha
@@timbo_fpv the trick that helped me was to fly close by myself but with the goggles off, so just keeping my own eyes on the drone and getting used to stabilizing
