While you expect high quality from Lowepro you also expect good design for a back pack sold at such a high retail price. Sadly you'll be paying only for the former with this pack. During the first walk with this pack I began to doubt if anyone on the design team at Lowepro had actually field-tested this before it went to market. Have any of them walked far with any ruck sack/ back pack in their lives, ever? Pro's : It's cavernous! Stiff and strong sides and back (the bit furthest from your back) YKK quality zips Con's : The padding on the back (the bit in contact with your back) is far too thin and because the pack sides are stiff it starts to dig into your lower back. The padding on the shoulder straps is also too thin for the potential weight you could carry. No D rings on the shoulder straps or anything else in a useful position to hook anything to. The interior has the type of covering (soft fleece lining) you can attach padded dividers that most photographers have from other back packs only on one panel- why didn't the designers think about lining all sides so it could be re-purposed? If they had they could have marketed it to other drone users (none phantom users) and sold divider sets. The side pockets barely expand so they are only useful for a map and other paperwork! Last and probably the worst aspect of the design is the type of nylon webbing/straps they decided to use for the shoulder harness's and waist belt. Unlike other packs which use a rough style webbing which is gripped by the plastic buckles this is like silky seat belt style webbing. The result is both keep slipping and you end up with the pack resting on your bum (fanny for the Americans) after a short while and you have to constantly keep tightening up both shoulder straps and the waist belt! Agh! It almost feels as though they got a cheap deal on some silky webbing a Chinese factory were trying to shift! Come on Lowepro. This could have been superb :( Give me a job testing this type of kit and I'll save your reputation! ;)Read full review

(+) you get the great Lowepro quality we all know and love. (+) heaps of room inside (-) internal partitions are suited mostly for DJI Phantom style quads, which very few people use now days. Carefully check if it'll be comfortable for your specific needs.
