In choosing which cases are the best for your needs, don't forget that they will add to the overall size and weight of the gear you need to move around many full flightcases are heavier than their contents, so you may need to consider the individual weight of each item, and perhaps even the load capacity of the vehicle you use to transport your gear. When I started out I couldn't afford much in the way of decent sound gear, let alone cases to put it in, but as I've built up and improved my PA inventory I've tried to ensure that it is packed and protected as well as possible. The degree of protection required and the overall design and quality of the case will depend not only on the gear itself but also on the intended or potential use. In the field of live sound, we need cases in which to hold, operate, store and transport our equipment. No matter what the object is, the chances are that someone, somewhere makes a flightcase for it, or is quite willing to do so if asked. If you try a Google search on 'flightcase', about two million results will be returned, the first page or so of which are likely to refer to flightcases for the entertainment and corporate advertising industries.

You might think that the cost of flightcases to properly protect your valuable gear against damage will be quite high (although cases don't actually cost as much as you might expect). Captain Kirk could look after the Enterprise by simply saying 'raise shields' but for the likes of you and me, it's 'flightcase'.
Once you've spent hard-earned cash on equipment for live sound use, it's the generally accepted wisdom that it will need protecting against bumps and scrapes along the way. But what do you need to know before buying? Stage gear takes a lot more punishment than studio equipment, so investing a few quid in suitable protection for it has to be worth considering. However, shown below are a few key features for this specification.A metal 19-inch rack case safely housing a set of radio-mic receivers. Certain criteria such as the size and weight of the equipment being housed, determines the construction and hardware selection of each Astroboard case project. Contact our sales team to discuss your requirements.ĭue to the lightweight nature of selecting Astroboard for a case project, there are many different construction options which our team will select when designing your flight case. Pictured on the left is a twin Samsung 55″ case from the Astroboard range. We have found that twin LED screen cases, up to 55″ are just about the largest size recommended for Astroboard flight cases. Due to the lightweight characteristics of modern LED screens, using an equally lightweight flight case construction is proving popular. Whilst normally, Astroboard flight cases would be selected for small to medium-sized projects, various larger cases can be produced in this specification, such as LED screen flight cases. This panel is of 7mm thickness and is available in four colours…Red, Blue, Black and Grey. Obviously, as the weight reduction is an advantage, this case specification deserves a little more respect, so is ideally suited to end-users and applications where heavy touring is not an issue! That said, if treated well, Astroboard flight cases will give many years service.Īstroboard cases have a shell constructed from honeycomb polypropylene. Visibly, Astroboard flight cases are not really any different to their traditional cousins, but due to the lightweight panels used, there is a significant weight saving when compared to cases.
