I think it's a good idea if you have the time.
What I would do initially is just use cheap equipment until you start to get more YouTube viewers, plus you might not even like doing it.
I have a £50 camera, a £20 voice recorder which I attach a £2 microphone to which rests in my ear cup, and a £20 camera mount which sticks onto the rear window of my Cessna.
Better than paying hundreds and hundreds for real flight cameras. Upgrade as you progress.
I would rather watch videos of you flying from A-B than telling us how to be a pilot. No offence, but not everyone will take a 19 year old giving career advice seriously.
Some flights, manoeuvres, ATC chatter and some videos of you explaining the flight and maybe a video of a pre-flight would be really good. Certainly do some training videos if you wish.
I agree with the poster above me, that guy does some awesome videos.
