You will need a Micro SD card to make the camera work. Get a 32gb card (or two if you are not going to transfer files pretty often).

I got the battery bacpac and thats heavy so you will need somthing.
If you dont get the extra battery you will not last that long while recording, i believe its like 45-60 min is all you will get. The WIFI remote will suck you battery dry in no time also. Run tests at home with the different setting. run each setting from a full charge to a dead battery.
This will so you what your recording time is compaired to quality and file size, but most important per Gopro it will condition your battery and the gopro will learn what the true time of the battery is. after doing a few discharges to charges i am getting another 10-15min of record time.

Good choice. I just bought one a few weeks back.

Buy this! 2 batteries with slightly larger capacity than stock... Great deal...

Build this! Buy the Monopod on Amazon for $9.99, Tripod mount for $5.80

The Battery BacPac is a good one from what I hear as well (no experience with that yet)

32 Gb Class 10 Micro SD card

+1 on the wifi killing the battery life.

I have the exact battery kit already in my cart. But there is a review on YouTube that shows less battery life compared to the stock battery even at the higher capacity. Still a good buy for the price.

Will a 64gig card work?

32gb card
save yourself the money and make your own pole, fill the pole with expanding foam just in case you flip
extra battery
car charger
I wouldn't bother with the remote, the wi-fi eats up a lot of battery. besides, its much easier to just reach back and turn it on using the 'one button' option
