3DR - Backpack for Solo - Black

Added this and it was a game changer - much easier to pack and carry my drone now - holds drone, controller, 4 extra batteries, charger, extra props, GoPro & extra batteries and charger, camera filters, even room for a log book and extra iPad battery pack Solo Drone with extended feet and gimbal fit in place without an issue - however props do need to be removed. I find the controller to be a little snug but not excessive and it has its own tie down / Velcro. This was very well thought out and made, and is even comfortable to wear - get one !! I use mine for both transport and for storage

This is a must have for Solo owners. The pack is well made and will hold up after regular use. The pack has room for everything, Solo, remote, x-props, 4 batteries,charger and xta room for odds and ends. The top inner section has 1 big zipper pocket great for your tablet, sunshade and even more stuff. there's a smaller pocket below that that holds my gopro and extra batteries and lenses filters. The pack is very comfortable to hike with or just transport it, it will fit in the over head storage in air planes.

I like everything fit perfectly and very good quality I recommend 100%

It fits the drone, 5 batteries, controller, tablet, chargers, and several sets of spare props. It's got padded backpack straps and back padding and is comfortable to wear. It's not overly large for a back pack, not unusually heavy, and easily fits under airplane seats or in overhead bins. Props have to be removed from drone prior to storing. Has padded feet on the back and is designed so that the back of the backpack sits on the ground when packing or unpacking. This means you aren't getting dirt on the side that is against your clothes while wearing it. The unusual aspect is that the zippered opening runs along the bottom of the backpack. The only reason I can conclude for this is to keep any opening facing downward while wearing, to provide better protection from rain. If the opening had been designed at the top, it would have been possible to pack/unpack while someone was wearing the backpack.

As our budget year rolled around and the FAA redefined the drone market, my boss put a drone into the budget. I did my due diligence and accounted for an extra battery for both the drone (3DR Solo) and GoPro in the PO, but said to myself "Why would we need a specific backpack for the drone? It comes in a carry case from shipping and that should be plenty durable, right?" Sure, the shipping case is durable, but it is designed to protect the drone itself. The 3DR backpack is custom cut to handle the drone, propellers and spares (which need to be sold as singles but that's another review), your flight controller and both chargers, AND five batteries - one on the drone and four spares. My ONLY complaint about the backpack is that it doesn't come with a layout of where things go, so it took a second to figure out where the controller fit. (But the Velcro tab on the sidewall to hold the short strap out of the way while you set the controller in was a GENIUS addition.)

I had my doubts about the bag--usually I prefer third party companies when it comes to carry--especially for complicated setups like drones. But I also appreciate 3DR thinking of new things outside the box. Fortunately, I got the best of both worlds; 3DR tapped GPC casemakers to provide the foam molding inside, which makes carrying the Solo and all the accessories--including four extra batteries on top of one pre-mounted to the unit--a breeze to tote around. Plenty of room for extra blades in the top, a tablet if you want to use one for flying (I prefer my phone), and even the controller and battery chargers, making this a great setup to keep your Solo and everything it entails--including the gimbal--stored safe and snug. It's roughly the size of a 30 liter bag, and the straps are comfortable for a single or double shoulder carry. The weight is spread evenly so long as you're not putting pairs of batteries in only one side. The outside serves as the base when opened and is water-repellent, keeping the main compartment dry and tight. Buy this with confidence. Unless you're tricking out your unit with a lot of other accessories like the spotlight or other gadgets, this is the comfortable, solid, dry bag to get.

Be ready to grab that elusive shot anytime! Pack or unpack your Solo, readying it for flight in less than two minutes. If you don't have a pack for your Solo, it is simply not convenient to carry around! Carry it safely and securely in your car and just as easily on an expedition to a remote spot. Custom secure molded in storage for your Solo with mounted gimbal, camera, two extra batteries, Solo charger, remote charger and props. Includes Zippered pockets for memory cards, more props, extra cameras - whatever! Very comfortable padded backpack with padded shoulder straps, chest strap that can also be used as a launchpad in grassy or rocky terrain.

This backpack was well thought out and made of very high quality materials. I can't say enough on how this keeps everything Solo in one nice place. For the flyer that won't be traveling in anything other than their own vehicle, this is the perfect carry case. Not to mention that it's a backpack too. The ABS foam insert is very heavy duty. Everything fits nice and snug. If you kept your prop foam from the Solo box then, it fits right in front with extra props. I covered mine with Gorilla Tape to make it stiffer. I do have to remove my DBS Mods panel antenna from the controller to pack but, that's hardly worth mentioning. Love this backpack and love my Solo. Fly safe, Fly legal, Fly Solo....
