Travel Case for Drone

Hi,

after many years of building and flying drones, I have been wanting a travel case of sorts which allows me to move my drone and all required components in a safe fashion.

A few years ago I’ve drawn up a basic design which would suit my needs, as is not a simple task as using and transporting smaller, ready made drones. Some of which come already with their own travel case.

However, due to time restrains I never was able to build such a case myself. So I made a decision to seek the services of a professional case manufacturer, who is willing to make custom cases based on drawings provided.

The outcome is shown below.

As you can see it got handles, rollers and a pull up handle so case can easily be moved on flat surfaces.

The foam inserts I have made myself, as it would be challenging providing exact shape and size specifications to a manufacturer.

Nice.

Though on my experience pulling something up out of a box is easier than sideways.

Well, given the base is wider than the top it would be difficult to create something which allows that, as padding is required (as seen in one of the photos) to prevent movement during transport.

……..also my back wouldn’t appreciate that these days. :wink:
