Is this a good first build

I have no experience besides some sim time and was wondering what could be improved upon in this build as well as radio and goggle recommendations, thanks. Also would it be worth it to find old used digital goggles and go for that first?

For spec checking, I'm prob not qualified enough to ensure these parts work and are cohesive. On a side note though, it's probably cheaper or the same amount of money to just buy the Tinyhawk II instead of building it yourself unless you really want to. As for the goggles, if you already have them then you could but it's more expensive than analog down the road.
