For a beginner FPV pilot, one of the worst things is crashing and having to end your day early when you're out having a great time. Luckily, if you have the right tools, you can often prevent that from happening. Here's an intro to my portable toolkit and the tools I personally use.
I've also included some links to the products I use. These are not necessarily the highest quality tools out there, but budget options that have worked for me. Some of the tools I already owned, or sourced locally, so I added a "*" for those products. That way you know the product linked is an alternative.
