Mavic Air (drone only) hard case

[tcope]

Someone didn't read the requirements.

Here is the initial post that I replied to:

"Has anyone found a hard case for the Mavic Air? I like the small case that came with it, but I'd like a small hard case for snowboarding.

I don't need to fit extra batteries or controller - just the drone itself."

In replies, the Apache 1800 was recommended. I agreed with that. So I'm not seeing the issue.

I went on to be clear that I went with the larger 3800 and why. My recommendations on what to do with the case applies regardless of the size.

What did I not read?

The post where he said it should fit in a pocket after people posted those huge suggestions already.

I see that but did not initially read it like that. But now I see it. As far as I can tell, the case the OP is referring to is the smaller of the two cases (or the case and not the pack) that comes with the Fly More package. If the OP is looking for a case smaller then that, it's not going to exist. Perhaps the OP wants one the same size but more sturdy.

Or maybe the OP has really big pockets.

Printing as we speak... It will fit the Air plus a little bit of foam. Fits into my snowboarding jacket pocket.

Looks Great

I mean... If you had access to that the whole time, why ask the question in the first place? Looks awesome.

Also, this makes me wish I had a 3D printer.

It's a it embarrassing, but I didn't think of it. I draw and print stuff all the time, so it's a bit strange.

I can upload the model to Thingiverse if there's any interest in it.

The size of the small case is fine, but I need a more solid one if/when I fall. The one I'm printing now is a little bit smaller than the stock case.

The snowboard jacket has pretty big pockets It can fit the stock case, but nothing bigger.

Please post pics when you're done printing. It's not going to take much more to push me over the edge and I have to buy a 3D printer.

Not too bad, I'd say! I added some foam so that it doesn't move inside of it. Not a cubic millimeter is wasted! Now I'm ready do to some snowboarding shots.
