Lowepro has added an Inspire II bag to their drone backpack lineup

 

 

Lowepro has a whole line of drone bags including one for the Phantom 4 and this one for the Mavic that also has a hydration reservoir, but the DJI Inspire has been a point of challenge for bag makers due to its large size and awkward shape. Lowepro's answer is the DroneGuard Pro Inspire, a unique design that splays the large Inspire wings outside of the backpack, which makes the bag profile slimmer and leaves more room for additional accessories. 

 

 

 

 

Designed specifically to protect DJI Inspire I or Inspire II drones, the DroneGuard Pro Inspire features a top-loading hangar compartment. When empty, the pack weighs a relatively light 4.66 pounds. The exact dimensions of the bag are as follows:

• Internal Dimensions: 27 x 19 x 43 cm (10.63 x 7.48 x 16.93 in)
• Tablet Compartment: 23 x 2 x 13 cm (9.06 x 0.79 x 5.12 in)
• External Dimensions: 29 x 24 x 55 cm (11.42 x 9.45 x 21.65 in)

The DroneGuard Pro Inspire will fit the DJI Inspire I or II, the transmitter, up to six spare batteries, an 8-inch tablet, charging cords, and also a water bottle and other small items. 

 

 

Since a large portion of the drone will be outside of the bag, exterior neoprene motor socks give added protection along with compression-molded FormShell technology to protect gear and props.

 

 

Lowepro says that their "adjustable shoulder, chest and waist straps keep users comfortable, while ActivZone™ balanced comfort system delivers ergonomic support and ventilation." The backpack includes a built-in All Weather cover which can be pulled over the bag and protect it in the case of heavy rain or blowing dust and sand.
