Sweet. I had looked at a pack by LowePro but it looked so bulky and basically just a box attached your back. Not comfortable at all. This though looks like I can use it every day.

I use it not only for my drone but for camera equipment since I do video for a living. It's absolutely amazing! Plus their warranty and customer service is #1.

Just got my Polar Pro Trekker and the quality is amazing. The only thing I have noticed is that when I put the P4 in there the 2 rotors towards the bottom of the bag make it a little tough to zip it up and I feel it makes it bulge out towards the lower back. I feel a little nervous. Like I am going to do some damage. It might be me but I don't feel like the bag is as wide as the pictures show. Maybe I am just packing it wrong lol.

Do you think its just us being overly protective of our expensive drones or do you think it could do damage?

I recommend that you try rhe case out for a few days and if you dont like it or dont feel comfortable with it. Then return it....

True. So far I do like it. More concerned about the long term effects of such a tight fit. Likely Ill keep it for now. Its really all that I could afford and I wanted something.
It definitely loosens up after some use, I have no problems at all anymore with it being tight, zips right over. I don't have my arms on top of any of the foam walls either, as this tends to raise slightly.

Here is the picture of the Anbee case I bought from Amazon, comes out to $64.06 U.S. and free shipping. It was available on the Amazon UK site but not the US site, but it was shipped directly from the Chinese manufacturer, my P4 fits perfectly in it, 3 batteries in the slots and 1 in the drone, my charger, 2 sets of props and various cables.

I've seen that case, not impressed. I'd recommend the version 2 of ThinkTank Helipak. Their new case is laid out very nice, holds lots of stuff, and uses new materials that are lighter. They saved 1.25lbs in the new design. I just saw the version 2 at NAB this week, pretty sweet, but it's a higher end backpack at $200. I think it's the best you can buy IMO. I'll be getting one, along with a new Phantom4P, soon.I would recommend the incase drone BackPack

@John Locke did you end up getting the Helipak v2? What's your thoughts after using it for a while?
No, I haven't bought the V2 yet, but I will. I promised the misses that I'd sell two other cases before I buy another one. I've got too much drone stuff, don't you love it?
What I saw at the NAB show was very similar to my V1 case, except it's lighter and there's only a grab handle on the top. They removed the 2nd side handle, which I'm bummed about. They also improved the stiffness of the interior walls, even though being lighter, which I like. Oh, and they moved the battery cubbies to the "bottom of the pack" (when wearing it) where they belong, very nice.
