So when flying abroad on a plane what is the best way to store your drones batteries? Can they be fully charged or does this matter?
I currently have a GPC backpack with each battery individually secured in foam, this should be fine, right?
Also what charge does the RC have to be or does it matter?
And finally can the propellers be taken onboard aswell, or will it be classed as a safety risk?

Thanks

You should buy a LiPo bag and check with your airline before checking in

DJI will suggest discharging batteries but no airline ever asks for that and they don't ask for Lipo bags either..
Go to your airline's website and search for batteries or Lithium to find out what their requirements are.
There's no problem taking the props on board either.
