Anyone found or using a hard shell case for the new DJI controller? I need to travel with it and usually check it in my luggage in hardshell cases. How about a screen guard when the controller is in a bag?

I fly end of August and am keen on people's experience too. The US (TSA) have relaxed things now...

Now with luggage restrictions in place for power sources not larger than 16x9x1.5, this means the MP battery would not be permitted. I am flying in August, has anyone experienced the return flight from Istanbul to London on BA yet and how thorough they search your suitcase for the batteries...
