I wanted to figure out how to pack the
goggles and mavic pro together in a backpack without breaking down the
goggles. Everything needed to be quick to get to. I needed to be able to bring 4 batteries. If necessary, charger and extra gear . . .
I found a small case that packs the drone and 4 batteries and and everything I need for a day's flights on Amazon.
Soyan Carrying Case for DJI Mavic Pro
Dimensions closed: 11.5 x 8.3 x 4.4 inches.
The secret to this case was its height, and its ability to pack a lot in a small space. It is just the right height so that the headband of the
goggles are supported by the top of the case (which has a bit of flex to it) when the band is extended horizontally rather than angled down (this position saves space).
When positioned this way in a backpack, dimensions used are only appr. 11.5" w x 14" tall x 7" thick (widest part of band on case).
If you desire a long, narrow space, turn the the case 90 degrees.
Dimensions above approx: 8.5" w x 17" tall x 7" thick. Just 3" longer than a legal size paper.
So by sliding the case into a backpack and sliding the
goggles after it (with the headband extended horizontally on top of the case) the two pieces take up a small amount of real estate, yet all of the equipment can be removed and set up quickly.
The
goggles rest with their rubber eye shroud on top of the case, and the headband on the side of the case. I have been packing this around this way for some time and no problems so far, though I would like eventually to come up with perhaps a small padded bag to slide the
goggles into for a little extra protection.
The backpack represented here is designed for laptops, and has a padded compartment on the side with the shoulder straps.
If someone has some other ideas about how this can be improved please share.
