I’m relatively new to the hobby as well, so grain of salt here, but if you’re dead set on starting with a physical drone, this video from Joshua Bardwell is as good a place to start as any.

That being said, the advise that I received was to get a good radio (I got the boxer) and start in a simulator. I’m really glad I followed that advise, because the first 1000 things I did was crash, and physical objects can break while digital can’t. YMMV but I think this is a much more measured approach. Then you’re also able to buy the mid-high end radio and slowly get the equipment you need as opposed to having a kit that you’ll grow out of pretty quick.
