I would say there was still a bit of room down the sides and the base, and consider that in the pictures I have placed all the equipment I need for FPV, as well as the Phantom itself. There is also a front compartment for those odds and sods.
Still can't get over the value for money of this bag. The quality is excellent!
Thanks, still a bit in doubt between the vanguard. Also because you said the laptop won't fit in this bag. It does, however, seems to fit the phantom better in height then the vanguard.

Yeah I did - however, the shipping is just as much as the foam! $45 shipped for Kaizen foam!

I ordered yesterday about fish....and it arrived 1st thing this morning when Ebay said it was due on tuesday because of bank holidays!! What a refreshing ebay experience!!

Lowepro 450 Backpack for Phantom
Long before I bought a Phantom, I bought a LowePro 450 for travel with a very large 300mm f2.8 lens. Now I'm using it every day for the Phantom. I used it for an 8-hour hike where I fit in a DSLR, 2 liter bottle, and extras -- after using it as my carry-on with laptop etc. -- dual use!!! I could use the laptop sleeve for other accessories I'm sure -- launch pad? I now have a Rotorpixel gimbal on, and it still fits fine -- just haven't re-shot the photos since I got it installed.
As shown in the photo, I put the Phantom in upside down. That keeps the weight closer to my back. There are pockets for extra props, spare phone battery etc. I put caps on the motor threads (made from broken props) to protect threads and backpack.
I found the backpack on my local Craigslist. I'm sure there are lots of them floating around, so you don't have to pay retail.

somebody on here has a custom bag in a backpack. its pretty awesome. however the search for this forum is weak. good luck finding it :shock:
I wonder if anyone thought of using a food delivery bag as a backpack.
Hahaha. I actually was about to go this way but I kinda wanted the "tactical" looking backpack.

Thought I'd show the worlds cheapest Phantom Backpack. This is not intended for travel. Its designed for hiking or mountain biking. For those on a budget you can pick up an inexpensive backpack at Target, Walmart or a thrift shop. The possibilities are endless but the YouTube video linked might give you a few ideas. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=STt4bfkqTG0

YUP. I used to carry mine around like that...the gimbal rubber isolators ended up detatching from the mounting plate..and the gimbal fell on the ground behind me! I have since zip tied my pltes together, but still - not very friendly to the gimbal to carry it this way.
the prop protector is a good idea though.
maybe make it in a different configuration for those who keep their props on and in the "X" position.
