LIPO bags suggestions?

[Ross Morton]

I will be flying with my Solo soon and need to buy a LIPO bag to hold my batteries. Any suggestions?

Does the airline require a bag? Most just require that the batteries are carry on and not in the hold.

I'm not sure what they require. I'm going to do some more research. Thanks

lipo bags are always a smart idea on an airplane!

i don't think they're required.
i brought my Solo home to Manila in the 3DR backpack.
no questions at LAX

They are not required but would be a good idea. If you have never seen a lipo burn, check out some videos on YouTube.
I was amazed at how "ferocious"? the fire is. Even inside a lipo bag, the gasses that escape the bag really surprised me.

If it happened inside the cabin of a plane, I think the pilot would need to land "yesterday" to vent the fumes which are probably toxic.
