Great backpack for the M4P

[parkgt]

The Lowepro Droneguard BP 250 is great for carrying the M4P. I used this with a Autel Evo 2 for 5 years; it is still in great shape and will now serve well for the M4P.

It has room for the drone, 3 batteries, ND case and RC 2 Pro with lanyard in the main compartment. The top two compartments have room for the charger and battery dock, plus spare props and more.

I hate hard cases and the DJI case is worthless. Unless you are throwing your kit around this will give you plenty of protection and a more versatile carry option.

Agreed. Have been using the same for an M2P for several years. Space for an iPad or slim laptop too.

I'm considering it.
Any photos to visually show how you have reconfigured inside for the M4P with all the components in place? Thanks!

I think the DJI M4P is the worst DJI bag to come with a drone to date.
Thanks, have been looking for something to put mine in.

It's not the worst (at least it is large enough that everything fits comfortably inside, unlike almost every other DJI bag), but I'm not a fan of the top handle on the side edge (won't let bag hang straight down when being carried by the handle) and the lack of a secure buckle that can't easily self-release, and no secondary zipper flap inside on top to protect the interior from rain water, discourage pick pockets, and prevent dumping out the contents, if the outer flap opens on its own from vibration or bumping. I certainly wouldn’t feel confident riding on an eBike off-road with the stock bag over my shoulder!

Hence my desire and enthusiasm over the Lowepro Droneguard BP 250, currently only $96 at Amazon, sold and shipped by Amazon, so hassle free 30 day returns, on the off chance that it won't work well for my use.

It's clearly very secure for transport via scooter or eBike, easily accessible, with room for a laptop inside to offload drone files from the 512GB SSD in between flights.

This channel is not good for my pocket. Ordered.

That one looks quite nice, but I wanted something smaller, so I could fit it in my motorcycle side case. Over the weekend I picked up this one: https://www.bestbuy.com/site/lowepr...ackpack-charcoal-gray/6333169.p?skuId=6333169.

It just (barely!) fits in my motorcycle case. I'd thought that I really just needed it to hold the drone, controller, and extra batteries (I've got the Fly More Combo, so not the larger controller), but was surprised to find that it fit everything that came with the original kit - other than all the extra cables for various worldwide power outlets, which I don't need to pack around with me. This one is nicely protective, while still compact and lightweight.

Could you please send some pics of how it all fits inside the backpack?

This will be the third case for me; the OEM soft case, a FPVtosky Hard Case and this one to use as a backpack to carry the MP4 when I'm biking.

All the Lowepro's are nice I use that size for my A3s.

Agree 100%, not at all secure. I hardly use them anyway, store my drones in hard cases and use one of tons of bags or backpacks I have to take it to a job.

It all fits fine vertically as well, I just decided to run it diagonally, since the divider strips can be configured however you want them.

The zipper pouch easily fits the charger, cables, and extra propellers.

Having replicated your setup inside, my only concern is the extreme pressure on the protruding folded antennas by the zippered back panel which is the exposed outside back of the pack. The main compartment isn't quite deep enough to keep the RC Pro 2 from sticking up by almost two inches. The protruding triangular harness rings on the bottom aren’t helping any either, especially with the longer harness screws that bottom out on the RC Pro 2 and require 3 small washers on each side to properly secure against the silicone ring.

Does that give you any pause for concern?

Any impact on that unpadded side will be transferred directly to the antenna mounts on the RC Pro 2.

Other than that, the bag easily also fits my 14” laptop, with room to spare everywhere else inside for other stuff, and is comfortable to wear and feels compact. It's a little unwieldy while taking it off, because it comes off like a small boulder, and wants to roll, where the impact of the weight of the entire pack on the unpadded antennas could potentially become an issue.

Solution to the protruding RC Pro 2 antennas and the almost 6” width of the RC Pro 2 with harness rings attached inside the Lowepro 250 backpack:

The upper interior main compartment can enlarged further by tearing away the top left of the velcro on the bottom to create the extra room needed. Then the RC Pro 2 can snugly be inserted upside down, at a steep angle, with the antennas facing in, and the harness can stay attached and folded along on the right edge, to pull it out easily. There is very little pressure in this configuration when the bag is open, because the interior of the bag that it protrudes into has room to move a little, and only the upper edge of the screen frame is touching. When the backpack is worn, the weight and pressure is now safely on the front of the RC Pro 2 on the harness rings. Much better, in case the bag takes a fall.

Lykus M1 Pro Backpack 2022 Edition also works.
Originally designed for the Mavic 3 with RC Pro.
Just need to remove the stiff upper foam piece to make room for the larger Mavic 4 Pro.

Thanks to your photo and description, I bought the same backpack and I am more than happy!

Really! Mine to top / lid does not sit well. If there was a light rain, any rain would get in the bag.
