The smart controller is my absolute favorite. It does the job and is reliable and its super bright display doesn't let you down. Even in the brightest surroundings, it lets you set things up comfortably. No more sun hoods, no more overheating.

If you cannot afford a super-bright display or there simply isn't one that fits your drone model, then good ole sun hoods can also help you in very bright surroundings. Simply attach them and the display is in the shadow always.

For users of a tablet that doesn't fit into the remote controls holder, an extension is necessary. But be careful: there are lot's of cheap ones out there that not only break but can drop your beloved tablet. Take a look at my recommendation.

Travel safely and don't get into trouble at the airport with these small lipo bags. In case a battery catches fire, the bag is supposed to not let things get out of control. I'm not sure how well they do the job, but they calm down the staffs nerves.

Investing in low-noise propellers usually pays back in way more relaxed flights. Bystanders hear the drone less and, therefore, are scared less (I can't believe all the nonsense that many media outlets publish about drones).

Extend the range of your drone without using any crazy mods that hurt the warranty and often cause malfunctions. Simply attach the reflectors to the remote control and you will notice that your signal gets stronger. Easy.

Sometimes you need extra light. At night. Obviously. Or when flying inside dark caves. Or during some kind of inspection. Or for painting light to the sky and recording long exposure shots from the ground. There are plenty reasons.

Wear your hobby (or profession)!

Show the world that you drone and browse through dozens of amazing designs. Pick a shirt, sweater, or other product, select the size and color - and boom - you are a fashionista.

The ultimate protection for rough tours or long-term storage. Keep your investment save from water (to a certain level), dust and dirt. And, of course, keep it save from bumps. Hard cases are a bit clunky, but deliver the best protection.

Not every backpack is a drone backpack. Not even every drone backpack actually is a good idea. There are too many cheap ones on the market. That's why I tested and listed only the best ones below. They are worth their price.

It sounds simple - and it is.

A power bank belongs into every single drone backpack there is. Recharge your smartphone and accessories when they turn low with ease. A minimum capacity of 10.000mAh is recommended.

In the winter, you'll thank me if buy these neat photographers gloves. Nothing leads to more crashes and poorly looking recordings than when you're freezing like crazy. These gloves do a great job and I can only recommend them.

Save your files right after recording them. And without bringing a computer. To a rugged SSD. Simply use this great device made by Western Digital (hidden behind my smartphone that is hidden behind the delicious fries). Amazing device.

You can drop it, it can get wet (until a certain level) and its still super fast. This is my favorite mobile SSD there is. Simply plug it into your computer and profit from faster editing. Save, fast, not really cheap, but definitely worth it.

My personal favorite is Adobe Premiere Pro CC. What a beautiful piece of software. Get a monthly subscription and edit aerials like a pro and profit from this always-up-to-date program that is easier to use than you might think.
