Multirotors in brazil

[grey-moth]

Hey guys
i'm currently planning a trip to brazil, for a holiday and also to shoot some video, i'm planning on taking my droidworx BOT Ti-QR i have a flight case for the BOT so i think flying with it should be ok, but i'm finding it very difficult to find information on flying MRs in Brazil or bringing them into the country. i was wondering if anyone has any experience flying in brazil and if so did they have any trouble bringing the aircraft into the country. also any advice or link to relevant thread on flying with MRs/Lipos would be much appreciated.
thanks
Archie

I can't help you with any info regarding Brazil, but having spent almost four decades in the aviation industry, I would strongly suggest that you contact the airlines you're travelling with about their policy and requirements for transporting LiPo batteries. Some airlines are quite relaxed about carrying lithium batteries, others are decidedly not. You may find it easier to ship them with a designated hazardous goods shipper before you travel to make sure they arrive when you do
