Hello,
After several years of "thinking of buy on off these", I finally got Mavic last Saturday as my first ever drone.
Looking forward for weakeboard season to start and practicing meanwhile.
Already feel sorry not to go for Combo one...
Regards,
Anton
Did you fly in St Petersburg? any issues with customs? I'm US citizen looking to bring my Mavic into St. Petersburg on trip. I don't think I will fly because I'm too freaked out by the laws and international implementations. Any advice on getting through customs?
Myha,Anton, we are travelling to Crimea via Moscow in a few weeks time from the UK. I have a Mavic Pro. If I follow all the usual publicized advice about carrying discharged LiPo's in LiPo protected bags, etc., etc., am I likely to run into any problems in Moscow with Security? I am travelling with Aeroflot and none of their "Dangerous Goods" pages mention Drones. Any advice would be appreciated.
Thank you Anton. This is my understanding also.Myha,
First of all I hope you and your family are safe.
Sorry for later reply. I cannot expect any problem bringing your Mavic in to check in luggage.
However if we refer to Aeroflot rules (Security screening | Aeroflot) there is special section related to batteries. For batteries up-to 100Wh (Mavic case), rules are following:
"Carry-on luggage:
- Allowed inside the equipment;
- Spare batteries must be individually protected in such a way as to prevent short circuits (for example, by means of retail packaging, taping over exposed terminals or placing each battery in a separate plastic bag or protective package).
In checked baggage:
Regards,
- Must be inside the equipment;
- Measures should be taken to prevent their spontaneous actuation;
- It is forbidden to transport spare batteries (not inserted in the equipment)."
