Criteria

The challenge is to find a case to pack all the gear and have them handy without much hassle when traveling.

There were some initial considerations for a hard case but I decided against it. A hard case is definitely more sturdy but it would also draw unwanted attention to the equipment. It would also be bulkier and more hassle to lug it around. Lastly, most hard cases have cutouts to custom fit to a specific set of drone and its accessories. They might not be re-usable if I do change the drone in the future or the accessories had to be swapped.

I went with these guiding criteria:

The case must fit into a backpack.

The case must provide cushioning and take knocks in the backpack.

All the equipment must be accessible (easy to pack and unpack) and no complicated layering.

The equipment must be stored snuggly.

My Gear

The DJI Mavic Air “Fly More” Combo came with its own accessories: spare batteries, charging hub etc.. I have also gotten a few accessories to help to augment the drone flying experience.
