## Advice for newcomers
<span style="color:red;">
OpenIPC FPV is still under development. Linux skills are required for installing and using/testing it.
If there are no such skills available or a person who does not want to learn, then it is better for the person to buy and use professional FPV Equipment which works out of the box.
</span>
You should have the following skills:
* Connect to the IPcamera / NVR with SSH (Secure Shell)
* Exchage files over SCP (Secure Copy)
* Using [VIM Editor](https://github.com/vim/vim)
* View the contents of a file using the CAT command
* Skills in adapting or creating a bash script
There are good books, websites and videos available which can be used to learn.
* [Linux Basics Course](https://github.com/kodekloudhub/linux-basics-course)
* [Video: Introduction to Linux – Full Course for Beginners](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sWbUDq4S6Y8)
## Revolution from OpenIPC
The classic set-up in the [OpenHD](https://openhdfpv.org/) project (and other similar projects) consists of a MIPI or USB camera connected to a Raspberry Pi, which act as a video encoder and router for the airborne system and in turn are connected to a WiFi adapter via USB and to the flight controller via UART. The ground station usually consists of the same WiFi adapter, a second Raspberry Pi or an x86 linux laptop and a high-contrast monitor or goggles.
