First- beautiful film. Well done!
Second- what equip did you use for the time lapse? Looks like you had a slider - mind sharing which one and if it's motorized?
I'd like to find a decent portable slider- I assume for this kind of trip it had to be packable.
Third- how many batteries did you bring, and chargers? You answered about HOW you were able to recharge, but if single Phantom batteries on a standard charger takes nearly an hour to recharge, this must have been tricky...
Great work!
1. I used shooting gears as below.
1. Dji Phantom4 - standard auto setting(no dlog) - 3 betteries with charger
2. Canon 6d (Lens 16-35, 24-70), Tripod - for timelapse - 2 betteries with charger
3. Sony Ax-100 - for zoom shot - 2 betteries with charger
4. Edelkrone slider - for moving timelapse (

5. Macbook Pro Retina 15" (Too heavy but due to memory capacity limitations of cameras and drones, I have no choice..)
->Total weight was too heavy(40Kg), so hired porter.
2. charging issue...
I took 3 P4 betteries, 3 betteries for DSLR and slider, 2 betteries for camcoder, 1 external bettery for iphine and 1 macbook... I think I was crazy
Charging can be done in any village, but it costs $ 3(per 1 bettery) for a charge under 3000M and $ 4-5 for a town near 5000m In the higher regions, it is because electricity is provided by solar power.
I spent more money to charge than to eat
