Field boxes are an essential part of rc flight. As I graduate from backyard flying, the more I realize this. There is nothting worse than getting to the flying field close to sun-down only to realize you forgot something. Having the right tool/band-aid could make the difference of another flight or heading home. Here is a list of things I keep in my flight bag. I restock as items are used and complete a checklist from time to time to make everything is there.

  • - Triton 2 charger
  • - eFlight wattmeter
  • - RPM meter
  • - Assortment of propellers
  • - Spare transmitter batteries
  • - Rubber bands
  • - Tooth picks
  • - Pens / sharpie marker
  • - Xacto Knife
  • - #10 single edge razors
  • - Straping Tape
  • - Electrical Tape
  • - Threadlocker (loctite)
  • - Foam safe CA (superglue) / excellerant
  • - No 1 & 2 phillips screwdriver
  • - Weller AA powered soldering iron
