Relatively cheap Quad bag
#1
I'm an airsoft guy and have a lot of decent (i guess?)  backpacks, however non of those can fit with my need on quads.

Watching Joshua Bardwell's video on quads backpacks are really cool, however it's not cheap and I don't want anymore packs laying in my house

So I decided to build myself one, and this is the result.

Most of the time i take public transport to where I fly, so hanging my quads outside the bag is nearly not an option (make it low profile  Wink )

and i want more paddings, you know most of the military surplus won't care about protection that much, right?

Then i decided to fit 2 camera bag in my blackhawk! medic backpack.

The pack seems like discontinued, and i find it at a local shop which sells a lot of second hand surplus, costed me 50 dollars. The good thing about this is having a lot of mesh pouches pre-installed, so I can make use of it. And the suspension system is good enough for under 10 kg carrying.

It fits 2 210 quad, a big goggle, a Tx, 10+ batteries, tools and i still do have a lot of unused pouches.
Also I may tie a fold able chair under the pack with straps. 


each of the camera bag cost me 10 bucks, so the total cost of it is 70 dollars, pretty good right?

Nice set up... The LiPos packed in like that would make me a little nervous but otherwise it looks good.

DGWorks, check out these universal external strap adaptors. You get 4 of them for $10 and they work amazingly well. They look like they would be perfect for your setup (when you actually want to hang the quad outside that is, just read that part).

Im the same way. I use lipo bags for transporting and placing freshly used/crashed packs. Very cheap on ebay and BG. 

Great idea using a military pack. My go bag stays geared according to the season. Might get myself in trouble with the wife is I spend $ on another MOLLE pack system. I dug up my flight pack from a thrift store for $5 Wink but I have to strap the quad to the outside.
