4 layers Pre-cut cubed foam and egg crate foam lid.
Case will hold:
- P3 with battery
- 2 extra batteries
- RC Transmitter & USB cable
- 2 sets of propellers
(8 props total)
- Motor wrench and replacement accessories
- Nexus 7 II tablet
- Extra SD card
-Case with 4 ND filters from TACO
- Cleaning kit with anti static retractable brush, Alcohol and ammonia
free screen cleaner, Microfiber cloth,
- Enough space left to hold 2 more batteries or other items, like DJI
charger and cable, Dominator goggles, etc...

Note: I put the props on the bottom, so there is no compression that could deform the props.

I will update when
