Just received my Air 2S Fly More combo and unpacked everything. My question is about transporting the drone (like in the Fly More carrying case). Is it advisable to remove the props before putting the drone in the bag? I'm not sure how delicate or bendable the props are, or if might put strain on the motors.

For me personally, I keep the props on and secure it with the following strap in the Fly More Combo bag.

Before I fly after removing from bag and strap, I double check each prop to be sure its secured.

personally it is not necessary.  the only think you gain is increased risk that you might not re-install them properly which will lead to a crash....a risk that far outweighs the potential to damage the props while transporting them.  props are cheap, no need to baby them.

Hello there borufeiji. Good day and thank you for reaching out. I hope that our fellow DJI co pilots can give out the best recommendation on how do they properly transport there DJI drones and with regards to this matter. Just a reminder that you can leave the propellers on the your DJI Air 2S when storing it and transporting as long as the case that you will be placing the said DJI drone is safe. If the said DJI propellers are scratched, bent, or damaged kindly replace it immediately before taking flight. Thank you.

I never remove the props when Im handling the drone bag,  but if I were to put it in the hold of a plane then I probably would in those rare ocassions.

Since they can be folded, it's OK to leave them on. That strap which RobZilla posted is a great way to keep them folded and safe.

When im transporting the drone on and out of the bag .o found that if i ise the straps and put the drone on a plastic bag ot slides on and out of the bag with out even touching the props.coz some times the Velcro can catch pn yo the inside of the bag. But when I usr the plastic bag slides in out with ease.
