I’ve had the Mavic for months now and have acquired some accessories that I find essential when filming. Here’s a short video of what’s in my kit, including fitting everything in the backpack I have chosen. A bunch of these items should be on sale right now until the next couple of weeks!
  
If you’re free, also check out my cinematic drone tutorials for beginners (71 basic moves, multiple POIs, wedding, etc). Thanks for dropping by to watch!

One thing I'd add about the blue multi-charger: I also bought one (AMZN) and on the page it said that the item was *UPGRADE GROUNDED*, which meant that after some buyers had complained that it arced at the plug when plugged into an outlet, the mnfctr had modified it so it would not arc (added a ground, or whatever). I am here to tell you that it STILL arcs when plugged in--or did the first and only time I've used it to charge a Mavic battery. It worked just fine, and I will continue using it, but I will first plug it into a switched-off power strip, set up the desired batteries/controller to be charged, and THEN switch on the power strip.
Charged a new battery (charge state at one green on start) in about an hour.

I thought I could stop bringing some of the things here but I find myself actually using them. Some just give that peace of mind and/or added protection for our expensive drone haha

The Manfrotto Windsor backpack is pretty cool! It took me a long time to decide one. My main criteria was shooting on the go, especially when travelling. A hard case might be too heavy to carry with the hand/s after a day of roaming. Merry Christmas!

Thanks for letting us know! Peter Homer did a bit of testing with this 5-in-1 charger too. Cheers!!
