I’m looking for a hard or soft case that holds a Mini 2 AND the propeller guards. Any recommendations?
That case looks like it would do the trick. What was needed when DJI changed the controller was a deeper case so the controller could be stood up rather than laid down. The thinner cases of this type for the Mini 1 were selling for less than $20. I suppose that it seems to be the first semi-hard case that's addressed the needed depth they could warrant charging more money. The long delivery time suggests its coming from China. That being the case I suspect there will be the same case marketed by others at a cheaper price once they can make them and get them over here for distribution.
Agree with you that it should come from China due to the longer shipping time, maybe Aliexpres ?That case looks like it would do the trick.

It's hard to say, but I think they would want to have a larger quantity that would prohibit air service, so possibly coming by boat. OTOH, the high price might be reflective of premium shipping price, yet still slow by today's standards. $55 is a little pricey for a semi-hard case, especially since we know the smaller ones used to sell for less than $20.Agree with you that it should come from China due to the longer shipping time, maybe Aliexpres ?
Big backpack you have! I have an Apache 2800 too, but lately I'm carrying my Air 2S and my Mini 2 in this awesome hardshell backpack made for optical equipment.It's hard to say, but I think they would want to have a larger quantity that would prohibit air service, so possibly coming by boat.

FWIW my Apache 2800 actually still fits in my backpack when I need to carry it hands free.
