Unsure where to start and how to get involved? 

In FPV there are many different types of flying and styles, such as Racing, Freestyle, Cinematic and Long Range. A thing to consider for your first drone is size.

Depending on your location, the size drone you would want to fly can change a lot. As an example, if you live in the city, you may not be able to fly long range unless you travel outside of the city to be able to fly where as a Tiny Whoop (65-75mm class) size drone can be flown inside or even in a small backyard.
