I crashed my Phantom 2 Vision+ about a year ago, after about a month of flight-training. I had never downloaded any apps nor used the smartphone for flying/FPV, etc., because there were so many negative reviews of the app, and I was awaiting a consensus opinion on what to do. Since then, I've...

the simple modifications I made allow the lid to close perfectly now. Thanks

Save I trimmed back some of the foam and got a nice, snug fit with the RC on its side. It loses a few of the spare battery spaces, but there are still four remaining and I can't honestly foresee getting even that many.

I just bought a ProCraft aluminum rolling case because I wanted to not have to take off the props to load the drone. Unfortunately, if one doesn't remove the range-extender, the RC is too tall in its slot to enable the lid to close, which is almost as annoying as having to unscrew all the props...
