I've got that same DJI backpack case. I think it's a little too tight a fit actually. There is no room inside for any other accessories and they completely forgot outside pockets for, say a water bottle or a sun shield......
The water bottle pocket would of been nice for hiking. I usually don't venture far from my ATV which holds most of my other stuff.
I haven't been a big fan of the DJI backpack for hiking. I find it uncomfortable after the first few kms. No chest strap, no outside water bottle pocket. I do find it very protective and nice for transport in the truck, but I usually move stuff over to a MEC pack before we start if it's more than a 1 km walk. Plus, while canoeing it soaked up water on the bottom and now I'm short one battery. [emoji22]
Now, just gotta figure out a door charging solution for hiking. [emoji16]
That's a good one-- you may have something there -- if you can figure that one out.
Really? Which accessories? I have the DJI hard case and it holds my copter, 4 batteries, controller, charger, iPad, 2 sets of props, 5 ND filters, my sun shade for the ipad, and a small notebook and some pens. Anything else can go in my checked bag on longer trips. I think my bias is to think of it as a bag for carryon, though. Don't really need to hike with my charger.
Don't worry, I've been looking. Haha I deal with solar regularly at work, so it's just a matter of finding an "affordable", flexible panel. There some out there that will work, but not in the price range I want. HahaThat's a good one-- you may have something there -- if you can figure that one out.
Maybe you have an older backpack? Mine has a chest strap. Mine is the hardshell - it's also my carryon bag and launch platform.
The Manfrotto/DJI pack does not have the chest strap. Apparently photographers never ever carry a lot of heavy gear. Haha Yah, I noticed the hard shell has it.
LOL I almost spit out my IPA when I read that.
The only reason I will never be hunched over as an old man will be thanks to the weight of the camera gear I carry when out in the field. Now I have to figure out how to carry the P3P in addition.
That's what Sherpas....I mean wives are for. [emoji6] I carry the P3 gear, she carries the camera gear. HahaLOL I almost spit out my IPA when I read that.
Hmmmm, next time I go out Im going to try and have her carry all the gear And I carry the water bottle. Ill report back.....in case I don't call the police!
