Choosing the right setup
If you are just getting into the hobby and you have absolutely nothing, consider the following components
to buy. Use these suggested setups as a "shopping list" if you are just getting started. Any existing gear you
already own (e.g. remote controls, chargers, batteries) can be used with the TBS CAIPIRINHA II.
These setups, with the exception of the camera tripod, are available from Team BlackSheep. Remote
controls can be purchased at your local hobby shop, camera tripods are available from big electronics
wholesalers or Ebay.
