Positioning (GNSS, GPS, Glonass, Galileo, Beidou)
u-blox Positioning (GNSS, GPS, Glonass, Galileo, Beidou)
Using a NEO 6 or 7 . These are very cool and dead easy to use.

DUAL H-Bridge motor drive
Shield fans have been great actually ... one of my favorite stores. Most of these items can be found there

LED Matrix I2C interface
Prolly better to use a maxim one as lots of digital I/O on mega. No point in having more things on the I2C bus than necessary
×1
10 DOF gyro / accelerometer board

Arduino Ethernet Shield 2
Arduino Ethernet Shield 2
Ended up doing two version one with the shield and one with the ESP
×1
Cable Gland
×1
IP65 Enclosure
Mine cost under $10 - undoubtedly a second but still fine
×1
Perspex Sheet
Got this from a rubbish bin (i'm a bit of a magpie)

ESP8266 ESP-12E
Espressif ESP8266 ESP-12E
Like this but with level sifters to make life easy...
