What if I told you, you could get the DJI backpack for £59 instead of £319. Whilst this is not exactly true please bare with me.
If you check the the images of the backpack on the DJI web site, in a couple of them you can clearly see that it is manufactured by Manfrotto, who manufacture good quality photographic equipment. I checked the Manfrotto web site and found a backpack that looks almost identical to DJI's which retails at £199, its a 3N1-35 PL. looking at it the only real difference I can see is the removable inserts on the inside. I then decided to do a "Best Price" web search for the Manfrotto backpack, that's when I discovered Kata . Kata manufactured bags but has now merged with......you've guessed it, Manfrotto. I'm not sure how many Kata bags are still available out there but I have found a UK photographic shop selling them on sale for £59 .

As you will see from the pictures on the above web site, apart from the inserts it is identical. I have purchased one of these and can confirm that the P3 will fit, I've used some of the inserts to form a few compartments for the extra batteries when they are available. The P3 has to go in upside down as shown on the DJI images, it is tight but now that I am used to it can have it in or out without any trouble and for a soft backpack it protects it pretty well.
Hope you find this info useful
Cheers
