Shimoda Core Unit - Drone Pro - Boa (520-473)

Shimoda Core Unit - Drone Pro - Boa (520-473): Keep your Mavic kit together

Keep your drone kit organised and protected inside your backpack, then take it along as a separate unit when you reach your flying spot. The Shimoda Core Unit - Drone Pro - Boa (520-473) is a padded storage insert for DJI Mavic drones paired with an RC Pro controller. Its divided compartments make space for the drone, controller, spare batteries and filters, so the pieces you need stay together rather than mixing with camera equipment. Use it in a backpack for travel, lift it out when you want to carry only your drone gear, or keep the kit grouped while working from your car. An AirTag pocket provides a discreet place for a tracker, useful if you want to keep tabs on where your equipment is. Shimoda offers the Drone Core in the Boa colour; this version is listed in beige.

Why it is useful

• YKK zip and padded lid: The reliable zip and cushioning in the lid add protection when the insert shifts inside a larger backpack. That extra padding is useful when the pack is moving around with other gear.
• Two clear TPU pockets: The transparent pockets keep small items such as batteries or a lens cloth visible, so you can spot them without searching through the main compartments.
• AirTag pocket: A dedicated place for an AirTag gives you a way to track the location of your drone equipment.
• Fits the Action X40 top compartment: Store the drone kit separately from camera gear in the upper compartment of an Action X40 or a larger backpack. The whole unit can also be removed when you need just the drone setup.
• Durable construction: The Drone Core is made for use inside a pack or out in the field, keeping the drone setup contained as you move between locations.

Good to know

This version comes in Boa, described as beige, for a muted look alongside your Shimoda gear. The Drone Core is also described as water-resistant, a useful detail when it’s being carried in changing outdoor conditions. That doesn’t make it a substitute for keeping the kit sheltered from heavy rain, but it adds reassurance for normal field use.
