Kingston Mobilite -- this little guy helps me a lot. I can charge phone / remote, also it helps me to backup or copy data from drone SD to phone memory or external HDD. As iPhone user it's the only option in the field (like mountains, or canoe -- no notebook or something).

Nice one!!!!!!

I'd like to hear from the gyus flying with carbon fiber props, about their experience with those... what are the benefits?

Definitely the latter, but it’s MUCH easier than the original gimbal clamp.  Takes a bit of lining up when putting it on, but I don’t seem to be forgetting to take it off before flight like the clamp.

That would defy be an issue. Don't know of anyone who actually flies with the dome fitted. With this combined version it would defy trash the gimbal and result in tears.

GPC MP Case, ND filters, landing pad, lens hood and RC shade, DJI RC hood, landing extenders, applicable cables and even alcohol wipes to clean off the finger prints on the iPhone and RC. Easier to view screens even w/ sun glare.

Nice tip, I always carry a microfiber wipe in my case for this purpose. It soes a pretty good job removing fingerprints on de controller, lens, tablet, etc

I'll share my experience with accessories i have
-Landing pad - use it very often for start - always hand lend it - ease for me
-ND filters - both DJI branded used them, but now I do not put them in, too much hassle  especially when flying at sundown
-I have a small hard case for Mavic itself - Verry good option!
-Clamp for sticks of the remote is the Must!
-I have 3 batteries and special Cases for them - very good addition!
-I have my tablet dedicated so it's attached to RC all the time - everything perfectly fit in a computer backpack
-The car charger is a good addition for travels!
-I have a power bank for charging RC and tablet, but Never used them?
-Charging hub is Great!
-And at the end foldable Umbrella for Shade on places without one (otherwise I always seat in a shade - being tenth, tree, my car's trunk (i drive a Mazda 6 Wagon) )

I have tested it. Real world distance for me was closer to 1 mile rather than the 2 advertized.  I was in town.  It does point you in the right direction, and lets you know how far away you are.  This to me is very helpful. I fly with it and it does not interfere with transmission.

I'm using a TKSTAR 4g tracker, works well if there is a celluar connection, cheaper than the marco polo, unlimited range until battery runs out , but obviously limited to those areas with cell coverage

Isn't it too bulky to strap to the Mavic?

Looks like it add a good amount of drag and weight to the bird... how much does it impact on your flying time?

it's very light, haven't seen a drastic change to flight times, but we are vlos in australia so drag is probably not an issue over the  short distance we are allowed to fly

Nice Gimble clamp Tombolian any good

I have it too and I love it.  I also stuck a piece of velcro on the side of it and stuck a long red ribbon on it.  That way I never forget to take it off.  Since that clamp holds the camera tightly still, it's not a good idea to even start the battery with that cover on.

I just haven't had the need for any of what you have listed.  I do have a half-dozen batteries and the DJI carrying case, but I try to remain minimalist with respect to additional hardware.  Now if you were to have a poll for additional/different software...

I have a gimble cover with clamp built-in.  Check it.  I consider it one of my best buys so far.

I have one of these Gimbal covers/locks, too. Very good. I also retain the OEM lock to install/remove ND filters.
