Tiny Whoops are extremely light and compact aircraft were the brainchild of modestly named drone racers “Team Big Whoop” back in 2017. As FPV enthusiasts practicing hard they crashed a lot of drones. They had the idea of taking cheap toy drone tech (which tended to have built-in propellor guards) and attach FPV cameras. “Tiny Whoop” was the obvious name, and the team’s followers spread it like wildfire.
