I have the Fly More Combo, but find the carry bag very tight when putting in the controller, 2 spare batteries and aircraft. Will it loosen up in time?
What are you using to carry your kit? The protective pouch looks as if it will offer more protection, but I'm often carrying a tripod, camera and snakcs, so I'd like to get the drone kit all in one case. The carry bag is designed for this, but the Air looks a little less protected than the Spark is it's own bag.
Thanks,
Chris

Use a backpack that has a hard plastic case foamed for Mavic Pro.  With a slot above spot for plastic case, which will hold a tablet or CrystalSky Ultra.
As for carrying it, throw backpack into back of Jeep, and let it carry load.

I'm a huge fan of cases that have pick n pluck foam because I like to be able to customize the interior of the case. I'm able to get some extra gear in my case that would normally either have to be stuffed in at the end or in my backpack.

Currently, I'm using a Seahorse 920 to house mine. It's a bit more affordable than a Pelican case.  That being said, I wish it was a little larger. I found there are other Pelican case alternatives available from companies like Ibex and Monoprice.

I have the same. I have purchased on Amazon. One of the best case in my opinion.

Is very good and practical case for our MA. I like the design of the bag that come with the fly more combo but is too small.

I really like this custom dense foam insert MA case from Freewell I bought last April. Holds everything I need for an extended flying session (including 3 or 4 spare batteries; I keep my PolarPro ND filters in one of the slots) in 1 convenient zippered soft but rigid & rugged case. No need to remove the RC’s joysticks, either - another plus.

The little colored plastic bits you see in the case photo are 3D-printed battery terminal covers I found online, downloaded & printed in multiple PLA filament colors. I use them to color-code & be able to quickly visually tell fresh from partly discharged batteries. Sadly the foam cutout in the case for the spare batteries is so tight-fitting I’ll have to shave it down just a tad for the MA batteries to fit with the connector covers in place.

Nice! I should see if I could make these out of some kind of rubber or soft plastic. I recently bought some from amazon but I really should dust off my 3d printer and get back into printing.

I got the .stl files off of Makerbot’s Thingiverse site. They worked perfectly, first as well as each & every time (I printed a bunch of them in various colors, all in PLA, some in multiple prints in parallel to save time). The PLA filament is readily available and fits the MA battery absolutely perfectly (other than the tight-tolerance foam pocket cutouts in the case). YMMV, of course!
