FYI - Your Phantom is made in China too. DJI is based in Shen Zhen. There are other "similar" UAV's out there. Including, but not limited to Walkera and the like.

You can carry them on. DO NOT check them. Just expect to be stopped and "swabbed". I've never had any issues traveling internationally with my (8) P1 batteries.

It's also worth noting that I switched back to the P1 props, but still get the sticks not centered error flash.

Interesting article that ran last night here in HK. I didn't realize that HK had some restricted areas. I have seen youtube videos of people flying both well higher than the limit and directly above densely populated streets here in HK. My worry is that one $hithead is going to ruin it for...

Here is what I have been using. It is an Osprey hiking backpack that I already had. For gimbal support, I had saved some of the "filler" foam from a pelican case I had at work. As an added measure of protection, I carry the props inside a tall thin metal thermos inside the bag. Doesnt add...

I flew Hong Kong to Switzerland last month with no issues. I carried it on in a "slim" Walkera briefcase style hard case. It's a pain because you have to take the legs etc off, but easier to manage when carrying other bags. On the way there, I had no issues, on the way back Swiss security did...

The GoPro stops itself and creates a new file to avoid creating huge files. Once it gets to 2GB, it starts a new one.
