BW Outdoor Cases Type 4000 – Professional Waterproof Protective Case for DJI Air 2S and DJI Mavic Air 2 Drones

BW Outdoor Cases Type 4000 is a durable, professional-grade drone case specifically designed for the safe transportation of DJI Air 2S and DJI Mavic Air 2 drones and their Fly More Combo accessories. German manufacturer B&W International has combined a robust polypropylene construction, a precisely tailored foam interior and a practical charge-in-case solution to provide reliable protection for everyday use, travel and demanding outdoor conditions.

The yellow BW Outdoor Cases Type 4000 protective case features IP67 water and dust protection, an automatic air pressure equalisation valve, durable latches and a rubberised carrying handle. Its interior allows the drone, remote controller, batteries, charging accessories and other essential flight equipment to be stored in an organised manner. A particular advantage is the ability to charge up to three drone batteries and the remote controller inside the case when suitable charging equipment is used.

The case has external dimensions of 420 × 325 × 180 mm, internal dimensions of 385 × 265 × 165 mm and a total capacity of 16.6 litres. Weighing approximately 2.7 kg, it offers robust protection while remaining portable enough for professional fieldwork.

Specifically Designed for DJI Air 2S and DJI Mavic Air 2

BW Outdoor Cases Type 4000 has been developed for transporting DJI Air 2S and DJI Mavic Air 2 drones, taking into account their dimensions and the accessories included in Fly More Combo packages.

Unlike universal transport cases, this model features a specially designed foam insert with cut-outs corresponding to the shape of the drone and its most important accessories.

This allows the drone, remote controller, batteries and charging accessories to be placed in separate compartments, reducing movement and contact between devices during transportation.

The case is suitable for both standard DJI Air 2S and DJI Mavic Air 2 packages and their Fly More Combo equipment. Removable foam elements also allow the interior to be adapted for different remote controllers.

This solution is particularly practical for drone pilots who want to keep all essential flight equipment organised in one strong protective case.

Charge-in-Case – Charging Batteries and the Remote Controller Inside the Case

One of the most important advantages of BW Outdoor Cases Type 4000 is its dedicated charge-in-case feature, which allows drone batteries and the remote controller to be charged directly inside the protective case.

The interior is designed so that, when a suitable DJI charging system is used, up to three drone batteries and the remote controller can be charged without removing all the equipment from the case.

This makes flight preparation more convenient and helps keep charging accessories in one designated location.

For example, after a day of filming, the drone and its accessories can be returned to the case and compatible charging equipment connected to prepare the batteries for their next use.

The charging feature is particularly useful for professional drone pilots who perform multiple flights during a single day and require systematic battery management.

It is important to note that charge-in-case does not mean that the case has a built-in charger. Compatible DJI charging equipment and an external power connection are required. When charging, follow the safety instructions provided by the battery and charger manufacturers, ensure adequate ventilation and prevent heat from accumulating inside a closed case.

Holds Up to Eight Drone Batteries

BW Outdoor Cases Type 4000 has been developed for users whose work requires several consecutive drone flights and therefore a larger number of spare batteries.

The interior can accommodate up to eight compatible drone batteries, depending on the equipment arrangement and the specific configuration.

This capacity is particularly useful during longer filming days, technical inspections and other field operations where charging opportunities may be limited.

Dedicated battery compartments help keep batteries organised and reduce movement during transportation.

When batteries are stored in designated sections, it is also easier to distinguish between used batteries and those ready for the next flight.

DJI safety instructions must always be followed when transporting batteries. In particular, battery contacts should be protected, damaged batteries must not be used, and restrictions concerning the transportation of lithium batteries must be observed.

Custom-Fitted Foam Interior

BW Outdoor Cases Type 4000 includes a foam interior specifically designed for DJI Air 2S and DJI Mavic Air 2 equipment.

Cut-outs created for different devices allow equipment to be placed in designated compartments, reducing movement and contact with other items.

The foam helps cushion shocks associated with normal transportation and supports the stable positioning of devices.

The interior includes separate spaces for the drone, remote controller, batteries and various accessories.

Additional cushioning foam is also fitted inside the lid to help protect equipment from above.

This interior solution is particularly suitable for professional use, where equipment must frequently be transported, removed and returned to the case.

Compatible with Standard Remote Controllers and DJI Smart Controller

BW Outdoor Cases Type 4000 has been designed to accommodate different DJI remote controller configurations.

The customised interior includes two removable foam elements, allowing the remote controller compartment to be adapted for either a standard controller or a compatible DJI Smart Controller.

This increases the flexibility of the protective case and allows the same case to be used with different controller configurations.

The remote controller is stored in a separate compartment, keeping it isolated from surrounding equipment during transportation.

The manufacturer’s design also allows a compatible remote controller to be stored with its control sticks attached, potentially reducing flight preparation time.

Before use, however, it is important to verify that the specific controller dimensions and control stick positions fit the foam cut-out without placing pressure on the device.

Faster Preparation for Flight

BW Outdoor Cases Type 4000 is designed to make drone flight preparation as quick and systematic as possible.

Thanks to the customised interior, every essential device has a designated storage location, allowing the drone, remote controller and batteries to be found without searching through all the equipment.

With a suitable arrangement, the DJI Air 2S or DJI Mavic Air 2 can be transported with its propellers attached, while the remote controller can remain fitted with its control sticks.

This reduces the need to remove and reinstall smaller components before and after every journey.

Such a solution is practical for real estate photography, technical inspections and outdoor filming, where the drone needs to be ready for use quickly.

When closing the case, always ensure that the propellers, control sticks and other protruding components are not subjected to pressure from the lid or foam.

Additional Storage for Batteries and Accessories

In addition to its specially designed equipment compartments, BW Outdoor Cases Type 4000 includes an additional storage section measuring approximately 100 × 45 × 112 mm.

This space can accommodate smaller accessories or up to two additional compatible drone batteries.

The extra storage space is useful for organising cables, adapters, filters and other compact accessories.

A separate compartment helps keep smaller items securely in place and reduces the possibility of contact with the drone or remote controller during transportation.

This is important for professional equipment, where losing or damaging even a small accessory can prevent the entire drone system from being used.

Separate Compartment for a Smartphone or Small Tablet

BW Outdoor Cases Type 4000 also includes a separate storage compartment for a smartphone or smaller tablet.

The compartment measures approximately 165 × 30 × 112 mm, allowing a suitably sized mobile device to be stored separately from the drone and other accessories.

A smartphone or tablet is an essential tool for many drone pilots, as it is used to control flights, monitor the camera feed and check flight parameters.

Having a dedicated space for a mobile device allows all the equipment required for flying to be transported together.

Before placing a device inside, its dimensions should be checked, especially when using a thicker protective cover.

Practical Document Pocket Inside the Lid

BW Outdoor Cases Type 4000 features a practical document pocket inside the lid.

It allows larger documents or a suitably sized tablet to be stored separately from the equipment located in the main compartment.

The pocket can hold drone insurance documents, user manuals, flight-related notes or other necessary paperwork.

Organised document storage is important in professional drone operations, particularly when working in different locations or regulated airspace.

The pocket inside the lid provides quick access to documents without requiring the drone and its accessories to be removed.

IP67 Water and Dust Protection

BW Outdoor Cases Type 4000 features an IP67 protection rating, providing a high level of protection against dust and water ingress.

In the IP67 designation, the first digit indicates complete protection against dust, while the second indicates protection against temporary immersion in water.

Under standard testing conditions, this means protection during immersion in water at a depth of up to one metre for up to 30 minutes.

This level of protection is particularly important for drone pilots who frequently work outdoors and whose equipment may be exposed to rain, mud, sand and dust.

For example, on coastal filming locations, in forests or on construction sites, a waterproof protective case helps reduce risks caused by environmental conditions.

To maintain water resistance, the case must be properly closed and its sealing surfaces must be clean and undamaged.

An IP67 rating does not mean that the case is intended for prolonged underwater use.

Impact-Resistant Polypropylene Shell

The body of BW Outdoor Cases Type 4000 is made from strong polypropylene (PP), offering good resistance to mechanical impacts.

Polypropylene is widely used in professional transport cases because it combines rigidity, durability and relatively low weight.

The strong outer shell helps protect the drone and its accessories against accidental impacts, shocks and external pressure.

This is particularly important when transporting DJI Air 2S and DJI Mavic Air 2 drones, as their camera systems, gimbals, propellers and electronic components can be sensitive to mechanical damage.

The customised foam interior complements the protective properties of the rigid shell by helping keep equipment in place.

The result is a transportation solution offering stronger physical protection than a conventional soft drone bag.

Automatic Air Pressure Equalisation Valve

BW Outdoor Cases Type 4000 is equipped with an automatic air pressure equalisation valve that helps compensate for pressure differences between the inside and outside of the case.

Changes in air pressure may occur during air travel, in mountainous regions or when moving between different altitudes.

When a protective case is completely closed, a pressure difference may make opening it more difficult.

The automatic valve helps balance internal and external pressure, making the case easier to use.

This is particularly practical for professional users who travel with their drone equipment to different work locations.

The valve is designed to operate together with the sealing system, maintaining the case’s protective properties when used correctly.

Temperature Resistance from –30°C to +80°C

BW Outdoor Cases Type 4000 is designed for use in various weather and environmental conditions.

According to the manufacturer, the protective case construction withstands temperatures ranging from –30°C to +80°C.

This makes the case suitable for both colder outdoor conditions and warmer environments.

For example, during winter drone filming, the strong shell helps protect equipment against snow, moisture and mechanical impacts.

However, the case’s temperature resistance does not mean that the drones and batteries stored inside can withstand the same temperatures.

When using DJI drones, intelligent flight batteries and remote controllers, the operating and storage temperature limits specified by the manufacturer must always be observed.

Strong Latches and Rubberised Handle

BW Outdoor Cases Type 4000 uses specially designed, durable latches that allow the case to be opened conveniently and securely closed.

The strong closing mechanism helps keep the lid properly shut during transportation and supports the maintenance of water and dust resistance.

The case also features a rubberised carrying handle that provides a secure grip.

The handle surface helps improve grip and makes carrying the case more comfortable even when it contains the drone, batteries and other accessories.

This construction is practical for everyday use and for situations where equipment must frequently be removed from vehicles or transported between different work locations.

Two Locking Openings for Additional Security

BW Outdoor Cases Type 4000 features two dedicated openings for attaching compatible padlocks.

The locking openings help restrict accidental or unauthorised access to the case’s contents.

This is particularly useful when transporting professional drone equipment, as the drone, remote controller and batteries may represent a considerable investment.

The openings accommodate padlock shackles with a diameter of approximately 7 mm or less.

Padlocks must be purchased separately if required.

The locking option complements the case’s strong construction but does not replace appropriate equipment supervision and secure storage.

16.6-Litre Capacity and Practical Dimensions

BW Outdoor Cases Type 4000 offers a total capacity of 16.6 litres, allowing the drone and its essential accessories to be transported in one case.

Its external dimensions are 420 × 325 × 180 mm, while its internal dimensions are 385 × 265 × 165 mm.

These dimensions provide sufficient space for a DJI Air 2S or DJI Mavic Air 2 drone, remote controller, batteries and Fly More Combo accessories while maintaining a relatively compact shape.

Weighing approximately 2.7 kg, the case is strong enough to offer reliable equipment protection while remaining convenient to carry by hand.

The exact total weight depends on the drone, number of batteries and accessories stored inside.

Stackable Construction

BW Outdoor Cases Type 4000 features a stackable design that allows compatible protective cases to be placed on top of one another.

This is useful for professional drone pilots and companies whose equipment includes several drones or different technical devices.

For example, protective cases for drones, cameras and other equipment can be stored in an organised manner in a workspace or vehicle.

The stackable design helps save storage space and makes equipment transportation more systematic.

When stacking cases, however, their stability must be monitored and excessive loads on the lower cases avoided.

Compliance with International Standards

BW Outdoor Cases Type 4000 has been developed with the requirements of professional transport equipment in mind.

The manufacturer provides compliance information relating to STANAG 4280, DEF STAN 81-41 and ATA 300 standards.

These standards address the assessment of durability and performance characteristics of transport packaging and protective cases under different conditions.

Such standards are important for users who need a protective case with verified properties for transporting professional equipment.

Together with the IP67 protection rating, they help demonstrate the suitability of BW Outdoor Cases Type 4000 for more demanding environments.

However, compliance with standards does not mean that the case is indestructible or that equipment is protected in absolutely every situation.

Practical for Drone Photography and Video Production

BW Outdoor Cases Type 4000 is suitable for professional drone photographers and videographers who need a reliable solution for transporting their equipment.

Drone filming often requires carrying multiple batteries, charging accessories, filters, a remote controller and other devices.

The customised interior allows all essential equipment to be placed in designated compartments, making it easier to locate and use.

The charge-in-case feature helps make battery charging and preparation for subsequent flights more systematic.

This is practical for real estate photography, advertising video production, nature filming and other projects involving repeated drone flights.

Suitable for Technical Inspections and Fieldwork

BW Outdoor Cases Type 4000 is also a suitable protective case for technical inspections, mapping and other drone-based field operations.

Such work often requires the drone to be transported between different observation or take-off locations.

The rigid construction helps protect equipment during transportation, while the customised interior keeps devices organised.

IP67 protection provides additional resistance to dust and moisture, which is important on construction sites, in industrial areas and during outdoor fieldwork.

The ability to transport multiple batteries is useful when several consecutive flights must be completed during a single working day.

Highly Visible Yellow Colour

This version of BW Outdoor Cases Type 4000 comes in yellow, making the protective case highly visible.

The bright colour is practical among larger equipment collections, inside vehicles and outdoors, where black or dark cases may be harder to notice.

The yellow shell helps users identify the case more quickly and can simplify equipment organisation.

The colour does not affect the technical protective properties of the case but may improve its visibility in different working environments.

30-Year Manufacturer’s Warranty

BW Outdoor Cases Type 4000 is part of B&W International’s professional protective case range, for which the manufacturer offers a 30-year warranty.

The long warranty period highlights the manufacturer’s focus on durable materials and constructions designed for extended use.

For a professional drone equipment case, it is important that the shell, latches and other main components are intended for repeated use.

The 30-year manufacturer’s warranty makes BW Outdoor Cases Type 4000 an attractive long-term investment in protecting drone equipment.

The exact scope and conditions of the warranty depend on the manufacturer’s current warranty terms.

Maintenance and Cleaning

BW Outdoor Cases Type 4000 is made from durable materials and is relatively easy to maintain.

After use in dusty or muddy conditions, dirt should be removed from the outer surface with a damp cloth and a suitable mild cleaning product.

Special attention should be paid to the lid seal, as accumulated sand or dirt may affect water resistance.

Before closing the case, ensure that the sealing surfaces are clean and free of foreign objects.

If the case or its foam interior becomes wet, it should be allowed to dry completely before storage.

It is also recommended to regularly check the condition of the latches, hinges and air pressure equalisation valve.

Proper maintenance helps preserve the case’s protective properties and extend its service life.
