Topic: Idea for new hardware (bag ...)

Just trowing a ideas like that but what about some new hardware for the drone?

I was thinking that maybe a bag for transportation could be a nice idea as unless you have a car, it makes it quite difficult to take the drone anywhere ...
Also, a car charger could be a good idea ...

Good flying !

A little expensive especially since you have to add shipping costs also.  I am hoping for a local vender to also release these bags.

I ordered this to be my car charger (http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/stor … oduct=2055). It hasn't arrived yet so I can say how well it works, but for the money it's worth a shot.

I bought a 75w inverter to charge my drone batteries in the truck.  The drone charger takes 36 watts of power at 120 volts, so there's tons of room even with a 75w inverter.  The thing cost me like $15.  Plugs in the cigarette lighter.  Was super handy for camping when we weren't running the generator!

I believe this might be the exact one I bought, although it was in a 2-pack and on sale:
