Hey guys. Looking to start this, any advice or where to start?

FYI
--------
 
I started with a Tello and still fly it around the factory to practice my hand-eye coordinator. A month after that I got a spark, love it! Thanks to the Tello that I could get use to flying the first month. Other wise that spark would have been in a lot of pieces by now. Start cheap because you are going to crash.
 
I have a Tello just needs propeller guards for R1000
 
If its just for fun, any cheap 2.4GHz should be fine.
If its for photography, could also be 2.4GHz but with a better camera (perhaps electronic stabilized).

But yeah, perhaps start off with a Tello, only issue is that you dont have a controller, which i personally hate.

I love throttle feedback from a remote, and I would also recommend your first drone to have altitude hold.
 
A friend of myne had a bugs b2w. That or the Bugs B5W or JJPRO x5 are probably the best starter drone out there since they have great flight time and GPS.
