So i need some advice on cases for my AIR 2S.
I wanna buy a hard case but i want to use to store the drone with gimbal protection on. Many cases ive seen that say are compatible with AIR 2S dont seem to have space to acomodate the gimbal protector. That for me is an issue.
Im thinking about this one, can anybody give advice.

I think that is the best case we can buy four our Air 2S, no doubt! Unfortunatly i dont want to spend that much in a case, that one is one of the most expensive.

Another option, if there is enough space in the cheaper case you can cut a notch out for the gimbal protector with an exacto blade.

Yes, thats is what i was thinking. Althout they say that accepts the drone with gimbal cover, i have my doubts specially with air 2s since gimbal is slightly bigger than air 2. For a better job im thinking cutting the foam with an electric tool.

I like this case a lot. Holds the Air 2S easily, also holds the standard and Smart Controller. No issues with the Gimbal.

The one thing I look for in a hardcore is the ability to have a shoulder strap.   I dont see the mounts on this one for that.

Nanuk 915 for the win.    Bit expensive but protects your drone completely.  

A cheaper alternative but good case is made by Smatree.  SMATREE Case Air 2S

GPC is the best. Better than Nanuk

Have you considered taking a knife to the case and making room for the gimble? I have a hard case I bought for my mini and did something similar, although it wasn't for the gimbal protector.

I had 2 GPC and had an issue with the hinges on 1.  So tried Nanuk and found them to be much better built. I have a total of 5 Nanuk cases and not a problem with any of them.  GPC cases were returned.

Never had a problem with GPC in the years that I have been a customer. Had their cases since the regular P4 days. Their backpacks are also superb.

GPC is no option because its not available in Europe. Importing from US with shopping costs and import duties will make the case very expensive.

Thank you all for your inputs. I will try the case in first post.
It seems of very good quality, is made in Germany, and it was €59 with shipping.
But my option, if im not happy with this case, is to get one that allows to transport the drone unfolded.

So i went fot the less expensive option, the case arrived today and my Air 2S fits like a glove, with no effort at all.
Very happy with the case, quality is great , takes up to 4 batteries, spaces are cut very precise and all this for just €59.
Nanuk is the best, but even if i went for the deal SkyPod posted, with shipping and import fees it will have reached $152, but for wo lives in United States its a no brainer.
