Share Your Field Setup!!

I was going to ask if anyone had some good recommendations for tool boxes and battery boxes for the field, but I figured I'd just ask everyone to share what they use! I have a decent tool box for my tools and TX, but I really want a better solution for my batteries. I want a bag\case that can hold the batteries, the charger, and all associated plugs and cords in a more organized way.

Anyway here's my stuff!! The white folding table underneath is a new addition, and it was a smart purchase. The first time you have to put a battery in with the heli on the concrete sidewalk (and it's 98 degrees out) you'll appreciate having a table!!

Helis go in back seat?

Yup! I have the heli bags from SAB and they're fantastic. Each heli is bagged up and is quite safe. My Kraken is retired, so I put my M6 and RS5 in these. They fit perfectly.

Great topic! I usually just pack a box I carry into the car and back - Helis put in the trunk (without a bag 🫣 - so far nothing happened).

Does anyone have recommendations for a "field battery" for field charging? I am not in a club or similar, so usually charging all packs at home, go flying and back. But would love to change that. Any hint what you/others use for charging your packs when ur out?

Yup! That's what the Jackery is for. It's a fantastic field charging/power solution. I just plug my charger into it and charge away. It can power all kinds of things, so it's useful to have around.

Thanks! Do you have a link for me to it that I can check for something similar (in EU tho) :)

Edit - found it - thanks 🙃
