1. Memory cards
You can never have enough space to store your drone photos and videos. The more space the card offers, the better. Many drones can cope with memory cards of up to 256GB (or even 512GB). A look at the respective manual will provide certainty.

2. Drone landing platform
Depending on the terrain, it can be difficult to find a suitable take-off and landing site for your drone. A drone landing platform can save a lot of work. Spread out the platform, place the drone and off you go! A very helpful accessory, especially in winter, that every drone pilot will be happy to have.

3. Touchscreen gloves
Tough drone pilots also fly in icy temperatures. However, it is difficult to operate the smartphone or tablet with simple gloves. Touchscreen gloves can help!

4. Replacement propellers
Propellers can easily break during more or less bad crashes or unfavourable landings. That’s why it never hurts to have a few propellers in stock as replacements for your drone. The prices here are in the lower 2-digit range, depending on the drone model.

5. Propeller protection
Beginners in particular are at risk of losing control of their drone and then flying into objects. Most drones have open propellers. This means that they immediately hit something with their propellers, which usually results in the drone crashing directly. Bumpers” for propellers offer additional protection here. This reduces the risk of crashing and allows you to enjoy your expensive equipment for longer.

6. Additional/replacement batteries
Our absolute tip. Hardly any drone pilots will only take one battery with them on their trips. The rule here is: more is better! You can never have enough batteries to extend your flight times.
7. Drone bags, cases and backpacks
Every drone pilot who doesn’t yet have an extra bag or case for their drones will be delighted to have a suitable transport option. The price range here is wide, depending on the desired features. Our tip: Better too much than too little space!

8. Smartphone gimbal
It is not uncommon for aerial and ground shots to be combined in finished productions. Smartphone cameras have long since achieved very good quality and are sufficient for many shots. To ensure that these shots are just as smooth and deliver an equally steady image as the drone shots, it is advisable to use a smartphone gimbal. For example, the DJI Osmo Mobile 6.

9. Registering for an EU drone licence
A must for some drone pilots, optional for others: the EU drone driving licences that have been in force since 2021.
While the “small drone driving licence” can be obtained from the Federal Aviation Office, the “large drone driving licence” can only be obtained for a fee from recognised authorities.
However, we can recommend it to every drone pilot. Not only does it allow you to expand your knowledge, but you can also officially prove it. A guaranteed advantage when looking for a job. Here we can recommend our partner COPTERUNI.
10. Additional drone
Depending on which drone the drone pilot receiving the gift already owns, he or she may be happy to receive a new drone or even a second drone so that they can be flexible. For example, as the owner of a Mavic 3, having a smaller model, such as a drone from the Mini series, at hand can be quite appealing.
This drone can then be used for more spontaneous shots where less technology and image quality are required or where the legal framework makes it easier.
