Hola Pilotos!
Carlos the Mount Lee Radio Monitor checking in, I am holed up behind the Hollywood Sign monitoring radio systems for the city of Angels.

Looks like you didn’t get much help here. I built a Cinewhoop a few years ago and my disappointment was the poor video signal in my goggles. If I had to do it again I would invest in the DJI FPV Air unit and goggles. It’s expensive but if you continue in the hobby, you’ll eventually want something like it. Looks like you only have 2-batteries in your list, you’ll need/want way more. I’d say at least 4 to start and learn how to charge them properly or they won’t last. Hope this helps.
