Heres that RC Truck: gearbest.com/rc-cars/pp_328270.html?lkid=12494468 That Charger I use: amzn.to/2DukUzy The Drone used in this vid is the DJI Spark: I recommend you look for it here: amzn.to/2C6cimo Gearbest sent just the bare drone to me and told me to include this: "Here is the coupon code for the DJI Spark: GBSpark gearbest.com/rc-quadcopters/pp_637651.html?wid=21 With the coupon, the price of the product will drop down to $529.99" But then I purchased the controller and 2 more batteries myself. I'm blown away that that Amazon link above has it all for so good. *VIDEO MAKING GEAR:* - I used my iPhone for the longest - no excuses, use what you have and make stuff, don’t expect to like it, just do it! That being said I left my phone on a train in Norway and instead of replacing it I got sucked into the gear hype. Here is what I’m using now. - Sony a6500: amzn.to/2ibGC5c — Also check out the lower end but still awesome versions: a6300 amzn.to/2mj8S7g and a6000 amzn.to/2liOlzS I do not recommend getting the kit lens. Yes, it is small, compact and versatile. But the image quality reduces a dope camera to smartphone quality. A camera is just a tool to capture the image that a LENS makes, and the ability to try on different lenses is what makes these cameras so much fun for me. - 18-105mm f/4 lens (a bit big and cumbersome, but impressive looking haha, it has incredible image stabilization and super versatile zoom range: amzn.to/2kexpcA -35mm f/1.8 prime (Great for low light and shallow depth of field, small and super fast silent autofocus): amzn.to/2j6iald - External Mic: amzn.to/2jh2DA4 - Rokinon 12mm f/2.0 is my new favorite, super fast wide angle manual prime. Extremely sharp, awesome for landscape or architecture: amzn.to/2liRnUA - Tripod: amzn.to/2ifoRlt - Fancy Photo head: amzn.to/2ifu24J - Slider: amzn.to/2ja1qcK - Ball Head: amzn.to/2ja9wm0 - Neat LED light pannel: amzn.to/2l9R51T - The light also needs like 8v external or these batteries: DSTE 2x NP-F550 Battery GoPros: Hero 5 Black: amzn.to/2kFmglH Hero 5 Session: amzn.to/2kFl7Xi BASIC RC SETUP: Radio System: - Flysky i6 - Feature packed budget starter: amzn.to/2jpjLAk - Taranis plus My all-time favorite: amzn.to/2iTa7ax - 8Channel Rx: amzn.to/2iKWQxj - Small SBus Rx for race quads etc: amzn.to/2iKWQxj - 5 Basic 9g Servos: amzn.to/2jAIRhZ - Super Cheap 30a/1000kv ESC/MOTOR: amzn.to/2jARbOP - 10x4.7 Propeller: amzn.to/2iKYYFu - 2200 3s Battery: amzn.to/2k5sDyg - Bullet Plugs are nice: amzn.to/2kxI7bD - xt60 plugs for battery/ESC: amzn.to/2kEb1Jy *SOLDERING STUFF!* -Simple and cheap but probably not crap: amzn.to/2iKX5J2 -Mid Range Weller Station: amzn.to/2iKZiE4 -My Favorite Hakko High-End Station: amzn.to/2jppFBo -60/40 Rosin Core Solder: amzn.to/2iKZiE4 (I do not recommend lead-free solder) -Extra Tube of Rosin is always nice: amzn.to/2k5vZRR -Desoldering Braid is good to have around: amzn.to/2jANdp3 -Helping hands are also wonderful: amzn.to/2k5ucw8
