    Mavic Air Bags... what are you using to carry your drone?

    I use a Peak Design 10L sling. It carries my Air, all the gear plus iPad, 3 extra batteries, DLSR plus extra lens and a tripod. Love it.

    There is a thread discussing the creation of forum specific to a local region. Anyone interested in Puget Sound Forum? I can volunteer to get it set if you think there is enough interest. I also know there are others not on this site that are interested.

    No kidding. One think I’d love to get better at is having the drone follow me on the bike - albeit the speed is just not there to do it justice. The challenge is less about seeing the bike and more about getting the scenery in while riding. GoPro mounted is fine, but a drone would be, well...

    Agreed. Wondering if we’re profiling? :-) 2012 K1300S with a few mods, Ninja 1000 for daily driver - looking at a R1200/R1250GS or GSA since I’ve ridden most of the paved roads in the Western US and Canada. The Air works perfect for me right now - from a “fit in luggage” perspective. However...

    63, ridden motorcycles since I was 19, software engineer still working in the wireless industry. Kids grown and out the door and I’m on my own now. Life is awesome. Just getting into Drones and really enjoy taking my Air on long MC trips. The ability to take pics and vids in 3D space is so...
