I have these two drones, so far i've got this backpack,Amazon.com : INFINATEZ Camera Backpack Large, Waterproof Camera Bag for Mirrorless and DSLR with TSA Lock,Quick Access,17-Inch Laptop Compartment, Adjustable Straps - Fits Camera Stabilizer,Drone, Black : Electronics

It seems to fit both ok (have case for mini 5 pro below in shot), but the avata is loose.. not sure i'd even trust this as carryon in its current state? maybe if i get a case for the avata? maybe should get a case for the goggles but a good chance wont fit

Either way the pack is a bit large obviously, so tossing on ones back for a bicycle ride to find a spot to fly both, could be taxing?

I'm thinking alternatively i could re-use the flymore square bags and somehow attach to my rear rack above my rear tire, or put in cases directly in a panier bag type set up that hangs down on the sides..or maybe one on a front handlebar bag? (rails to trails)

Has anyone had experience with the above as a carryon, any damage risk ? And has anyone transported two of these size at a time on a bike and found a reasonable solution? I also wanted two at once on a walking trail, but that means this bag, minimal, or a standard backpack with both flymore bags stacked inside (guessing there are scenarios i might want shots from both drones)

EDIT: maybe a frame mount even on rails to trails isnt good for rattles, might be a backpack or bust

Try one thing at a time. Fully loaded backpack might be taxing after a while but just test it out without stopping to fly to get a sense of the weight and size to deal with.. That is a lot of gear, goggles (3 or 3N?) extra batteries, hubs ect. it doesn’t seem you have much choice but to use a large case like what you’ve purchased.. Foam inserts cut to fit might be an answer to securing the Avata. I have no idea of what the rules are for carry on’s but I’d make sure it was tightly packed somehow. I just purchased a backpack for my neo and RC2 and working out how and when to use it.
