Do you think I can fit a mavic in this backpack?

If the speaker has a magnet I wouldn't advise it.
Looks more than big enough though, you could probably fit three in it.

Like 4wd said, yes and extra gear as well. I would not advise it either if the speaker has a magnet in it.

What would the magnet do?

Upset your compass.
At best it would tell you to recalibrate, at wost it might be thoroughly scrambled, allow you to take off then crash.

I sent them an email and they said that the speaker does not contain a magnet. I went ahead and bought the backpack. Is there anyway to make sure it does not have a magnet when I get the backpack?

The speaker definitely has a magnet in it. That's how speakers work, with magnetic field fluctuations. Anyway, I don't see any issue with having your Mavic near a magnet. Just don't have the backpack next to the Mavic when you power it on and take off.

stupid question, aren't the compass in modern quadcopters electronic? I assume you transport your mavic while it's off, so why would having magnets nearby when not in use just for transporting it be bad?

My Peak Design backpack has a magnetic latch...no issues carrying my Mavic in it.

OT but if y ou're gonna spend $140, get a real bag. Comfort and durability is more important than a cheap integrated speaker and waterproof hard shell. Just get a rain-cover and a separate bluetooth speaker.
