How to fill the shoulder bag?

FredzMaxxUAV · Nov 2, 2016

Any idea on how to fill the DJI shoulder bag? Their website states "Holds: 1 aircraft, 1 controller, 4 batteries, 1 smartphone, and smaller accessories such as cables."
But mine is already full with craft, controller, 2 batteries...
There is a video on YT, but the guy forgot to pack the controller...

The Mavic FAQ says to fill the bag as follows:

"One mounted on the Mavic, one at the bottom of the bag, and on in each of the two side pockets."

I've managed 3 batteries with the 3rd battery in the Mavic. The controller in the main compartment next to the Mavic and the 2 batteries in the netting on either side. Cables and USB Micro SD card reader goes in the netting in the inside lid and that leaves the front pocket which you can use for the SmartPhone.

I guess you could put the controller in one of the side net pockets and the batteries in the main compartment but that does not protect the controller much.

i have fly more combo. so far i put one battery on the drone itself and slot it inside one of the compartments. my RC i put it diagonally in the other compartment to prevent pressure on sticks. my two spare batteries on the two side mesh pockets. spare props in the front part of the main compartment in the zippered compartment. spare sd cards and my small lens pen in there as well.
As for the 4th batt, i think you can place it right on top of your rc and zip it all up.

I don't recommend the side mesh pockets for the batteries.
DJI went through some effort to make this bag Waterproof.
Put to two extra batteries in the Front zippered compartment. Keep them safe from moisture, and dust.

I've seen many posts on this and even videos of people catching the Mavic props on the shoulder bag, so I made a quick video showing what I've learned so far...
