Tymofii Ihorovych Soloviov (Script error: The function "langx" does not exist.; born 24 September 1999) is a Ukrainian entrepreneur, volunteer.[1] He is also known as an singer under the name TIMA.[2]

Biography

Soloviov was born in Bobrynets, Kirovohrad Oblast. He began programming at the age of 14, and at 15, he became interested in model aircraft, which later grew into his own business.[3]

Since 2016 he has been working with volunteers and military personnel who participated in combat operations in the east of Ukraine in the Joint Forces Operation zone.[4] Soloviov invested 1.5 million hryvnia in the production of FPV drones in Ukraine, in particular carbon frames and other components.[5] In 2023, he registered RC Store, a company specializing in the import and sale of quadcopters and UAVs.[6]

In 2017, Soloviov received the status of an official DJI drone dealer in Ukraine.[7] He introduced AUTEL drones, but this venture did not bring the expected results. However, during the Russian full-scale invasion, they replaced drones that posed a threat to Ukrainian pilots due to the possibility of them being tracked by the enemy.[8] He played a key role in the introduction of FPV drones in Ukraine. During their active spread in America, Soloviov decided to implement them in Ukraine as well, signing contracts with the manufacturers, such as BETAFPV, GEPRC, and others. Their ready-made training kits made it easier for beginners to get started and created a lot of popularity and excitement through video reviews on YouTube.[9][10]

Since the beginning of Russia's war against Ukraine, Soloviov, together with volunteers, has donated more than 500 quadcopters to the Armed Forces of Ukraine.[11][12] Since early 2023, he has been working on training drones for the military, which have become an important tool for training FPV drone operators in military schools such as Boriviter, Victory Drones, and Global Drone.[13][14][15][16]

According to Forbes, in 2024, the revenue of RC Store, a company specializing in the production and sale of FPV drones, amounted to UAH 200 million.[17] In August 2025, Soloviov announced a new development of FPV drones capable of functioning effectively in conditions of active electronic warfare (EW). According to him, these drones "adapt to signal interference, which significantly reduces the impact of EW and increases the chance of successfully hitting targets."[18] In 2025, RC Store, founded by Soloviov, was included in the "NEXT 250" Forbes Ukraine rating — a list of the most promising small and medium-sized companies in Ukraine, whose participants, according to the editorial board, have a good chance of breaking into the higher business league.[19]

Major Ukrainian television channels, including ICTV, reported on the activities of Soloviov and his FPV-drones company RC Store.[20] As of 2024, Soloviov is developing his own video transmitters, video receivers, and controllers, which are planned to be launched into serial production at a cost no higher than in China.[5] Global leaders in FPV drone brands have recognized his company as their No. 1 customer for the purchase of FPV spectrum mechanisms in 2024. Ukraine has overtaken the US in terms of purchases and has become the largest customer.[21]

In June 2024, Soloviov began his musical career as a performer under the name TIMA. His debut track, "Krylo" (Wing) was written based on his personal story. Feedback from fans and the positive reaction of listeners to his debut track encouraged him to move forward. The proceeds from the streams were donated to charity.[22]

In four months of creativity, TIMA's songs, including "Хмари" (Clouds), "Падали" (Fallen) and "Накривай" (Cover Up), have garnered millions of plays on music platforms.[23] In May 2025, TIMA presented the single "To the Stars" — a song about the path to dreams despite doubts and contempt from those around him. An official video for the single was released along with the track.[24]
