I just purchased my first drone a Mavic Mini and I am trying to find out if there is a case/landing gear setup that doesn't require you to remove the gear to put it into the case? Anyone have any recommendations?

Harbor Freight Apache Case, pick-and-pluck the foam to fit, then hose it down with spray-on Plasti-Dip. They have many sizes available.

Welcome to the forum !
I ordered my backpack from the site below.
MM backpack
I liked that I can store the Mavic Mini folded out (= in Ready-to-Fly mode)
I use PGYTECH landing gear and I had no problem keeping them on the MM in this case/bag.

Unless you are looking for something compact and easy to carry along, go with a hard case with more room than you think you might need, because you will end up using all of it, and it is so much more practical to carry your mini fully deployed, than having to unfold it and fold it again every single time.
Here is my car carrying case, everything goes with me.
Then, if I decide to carry with me on a hike, subway, train, swimming ... you got the picture, I have a fanny pack
. It is also carried in the hard case, ready for easy transport, a drone with battery, an RC and a phone.

I also learned a neat trick for keeping the pick & pluck foam together. After I get the foam plucked the way I'd like....I turn it upside down on a sheet of thin black foam. I bought the roll at a craft store. Once I've marked all the spots needed to be trimmed/removed....I hot glue the foam on top of the pick & pluck. Loots good.. works well.
Here's my case....(I must admit...I like making the cases. Did one for the Mini, a6400, Ronin S, audio gear...)

Made A Case For Mini and Accessories...
Well guys, seems I have to make up a case for every piece of gear I have. I have an Apache case from HF for my Ronin-S, Sony 6400 and also some audio gear. I like to have everything in one place. Anyhow...the Apache cases weren't going to work for the Mini. The case that came with mine was...

Just use the flymore case if you have one about 15 minutes with a hairdryer or less with a heat gun I used a few clamps and a scrap piece of timber to squash the rear and flattened the top bump not sure if that was necessary just saved any added pressure on the drone also open up around the the front legs with a bit of heat and finger pressure .
I have the landing legs and engine covers I have read all the posts on both and they suit my situation so being able to use the standard case was a bonus.

Here is a inexpensive way. I have two. One for the Mini unfolded ,batteries and some smaller items and one for all my other accessories that I don't always need. You can change the configuration to fit your needs.

Using my old military 17.5 x 12 x 4.5 brief case. MM combo case and guards, plus landing pad, landing gear, and other goodies fit, with room to spare.

Does the knobbly foam in the lid not press down on the blades?
These look the most interesting of the hard cases for an unfolded Mini I’ve found:

The smallest outdoor case with hard foam inlay for the DJI Mavic Mini and accessories. Its lightweight and compact dimensions make it very easy to transport and stow it practically anywhere. Equipped with high-quality hard foam inlay made of fine-pored PE material suitable for the mini-drone in...

Within the last week, someone posted about a case that actually accommodated the Mini with the prop guards attached (or detached). Obviously, that case would be a bit larger.
