12 years old. Gear and prices may have changed since.
What the thread found
- A Pelican 1600 case can accommodate a folded arm with additional space for small items and has been used successfully for shipping over extended periods
- Modular arm bags and ready arm bags are practical solutions for day-to-day transport of arms on set
- A firearms case can serve as an effective hard case solution for arm storage and transport
Depends on
- The Pelican 1600 solution requires the arm to fold compactly
- Recommendations are based on experience with specific arm models like the Silver Spring design
- Some suggestions were made in context of non-flying transport where minor structural flex is acceptable
