Hey guys, complete newbie here. I recently ordered a Holy Stone HS300 as my first drone, and have 2 questions I would like some assistance with: Firstly, I can't seem to find a case online. I found a Holy Stone case on Amazon, but according to their customer assistance people it doesn't fit the HS300. Does anyone know of modular interior cases or bags I could check out? Secondly, we are flying to Thailand on Air Asia in January, and I can't find anything specific on drones on their flights. They only mention that lithium batteries are banned, but then specifically mention "hoverboards... and similar equipment". Surely they can't ban any and all lithium batteries, surely you can fly with cameras, laptops etc that have lithium batteries. Any advice would be appreciated, thanks!
In most cases, batteries are banned in checked luggage - since a fire in the belly of the plane would be more difficult to deal with. In the USA and in most other cases I have heard - there is no problem with the batteries inserted into the units and brought on board - AND - no problem with bringing them on board and storing in the overhead or under the seat. https://support.airasia.com/s/article/What-items-are-prohibited-en?language=en_GB Does not mention batteries. I think they probably have an updated policy that many of their employees don't even know about. Try an online chat - but present the proper information: 1. Small toy drone with battery installed 2. Spare batteries in special bag Have the total watts or Mah available if you can. You should not have a problem with a small unit like that - or even bigger units. The key is to carry them on board.
