Hmmm, how about this?
Good metric allen drivers or a set of good set allen wrenches. Screw drivers that fit the screws as well as possable. PITCH GAUGE! - very important Locktite- Also very important. some metric nut drivers. Not sure aht I use most but around 6mm, 7mm, 8mm, 9mm, and 10mm. Ball link pliers - not needed but they sure do help. ball link sizer - I've been flying since April and I just ordered one. not needed but helps. Needle nose pliers - I love these! Normal pliers - :) old rags - always usefull wire ties - for wires Tylenol - When you have a porlbem you can't fix. RCUniverse.com - VERY VERY helpful CANNOT do without! 15 pound sledge hammer - Last resort. |

Of course you can always get carried away and get one of those $700 kits. But you really don't need a lot of that stuff.
Are you asking mostly about setup tools or both setup tools and field equipment like starters, batteries, ect? |
