Can y’all help get me started with open source drone stuff? Ideally sub 250g. I’m looking to get into the hobby, and don’t have anything. Recommendations for controllers, SIMs etc would also be nice.

    Very short answer: Get any of the opentx/edgetx transmitters (like radiomaster, jumper). go for expressLRS as a protocol for transmitter/receivers (2.4g). The default firmware for flying yourself is betaflight (racing, acro, some camera drones like cinewhoops). If you want the drone to fly itself (gps missions) it’s probably ardupilot, but check legality in your area first. I have no direct recommendation for video for you, sorry.
