I've been trying to find the Hardshell Backpack for the Phantom 3 from DJI. The listing is gone. It doesn't just say not in stock, it was taken down. Does anyone know why?

I don't know but I have one on order from a local retailer and they told me the DJI HQ said they would start shipping this week however they are not. So there must be some sort of delay.

Please share the name of the retailer. Are they still accepting orders?

Overwhelming demand for this item at this site forced them to stop preorders. Just like everything else associated with the phantom 3 you have to wait!!!

Hi s_nyky,
How's it going?
Oh, I already learned that waiting is a virtue...My Phantom 3 Pro' should be here in approximately just over one more week.
It was sitting in Toronto customs earlier today, so Great Hobbies told me this afternoon, they expect it to leave Mississauga by truck on Tuesday.
I figure it should only take five days travel, but I'm not driving. Ahhhhhhh!! Sigh of relief.

Tonight, I'm Not even thinking, in fact I refuse, to consider thoughts about extra batteries or traveling cases right now...
Though, During the last few several weeks, I have somehow even managed to save up a few more bucks, a couple of $100, for those extra batteries, spare blades and other incidentals.
So that was a benefit, check mark in the good column... For the future.
For now, I Just want to be flying...  Soaring, and sailing the clouds
And slowly breaking in the new battery.  There will be more smart batteries in a while, when ever they show up.

I am very thankful for the forum/s and YouTube to help break up the monotony and the anguish of the lengthy wait. For what it was...

They built this Phantom 3 Professional, up to higher standards into being something great. & so I hope that it lives up to its high expectations, for me.

My hard shell changed to shipped Saturday and should deliver Thursday, however I still do not have my Phantom from Dronesetc since April 25th. So I'll have a lonely backpack

I got my phantom 3 pro back on may 16th and just got the hard shell backpack in today June 3.  I'm still waiting on my extra battery. i also ordered a set of phantom 2 and 3 prop guards with the back pack, then they both disappeared from the store. now my prop guards changed from phantom 2 and 3 to just phantom 2 . i spoke with customer service and they said that they'll send me the phantom 3 prop guards once they become available. since the phantom 2 props don't fit the 3. they also said not to worry that my orders say phantom 2 only. they'll send me the phantom 3 prop guards.
