If you go through the posts above you shall get your answer. I carry it by first taking the props out and then by putting the props and battery in my cabin bag and the drone body in the checked-in bag. This is the simple trick I use.

M2P is amazing with the 1 inch Hasselblad sensor. I'm waiting for the next iteration of the Mavic Air. Should be amazing if they can put a Hasselblad sensor in there too.

I don't use a drone bag when I travel. For my Mavic Air, I use the small DJI bag for just the drone and put it inside my checked-in bag. I carry the props and the battery in my cabin bag.

The trick I use has been fail proof till now. Traveled to Thailand and Vietnam using the same trick and it has worked on both occasions.

Epic video bro! You've been to some really exotic places and now I feel like visiting again. Keep it up and happy flying!

I think It's cos the Govt. has restricted some telecommunication channels in the Gulshan area. Mobile internet in Gulshan is also very restricted. That should explain everything if you know what I mean. it won't be fixed till the election is over. And, it has nothing to do with your quad.

If you've flown in the US you already should be in FCC mode. Check the wi-fi channels and you can tell whether you're in FCC or in CE. You should have 11 channels if you're in FCC.

Check:

Do the CE to FCC hack. That should solve the range problem easily. I was also kind of upset with the range when I bought the MA as it was on CE mode. I did the small hack later and I was blown away by the performance. Zero connectivity issues after that. Do it now :) Check

All it takes is one occasion for leaving a sour taste. I don't understand their language and hence didn't take the risk in Hanoi. Had no issue in Sapa and in Halong Bay.

I have seen many videos in Youtube regarding taking your drone to all the airports in Vietnam and most were positive regarding all the airports. I didn't fly to HCMC and hence I have no personal experience regarding that airport but I believe you should be fine. What I do is put my Mavic Air and...

True. The Mavic Air is a gamechanger. Small, fast and takes amazing photos and videos for a drone of that size. It raises no suspicion at the airport if it doesn't have the props with it. If they check, you can easily tell them its a camera. I took it out from Dhaka twice and brought it back in...

Yes, you do need a permit to fly it in Vietnam and it takes a lot of time to get the permit. Its better to fly it outside the city, away from the crowd. Domestic flights should not be a problem but even then try your best not to reveal that you're taking a drone. Just take off the props and put...

All kinds of batteries should be in cabin baggage and that's the general rule when you're flying. You prolly can carry the props in the same bag with the batteries. The rest can be in the checked-in luggage. Well, drone flying is illegal in Bangladesh so we kinda go outside the city and fly it...

You should be fine then. Take the props in a different bag.
