I can't think of anything dangerous in the kit (it's really just a collection of plastic and some metal parts), but I don't want to get stuck at security either.

I would be grateful for some advice from seasoned flyers.

Thanks

Tim
If I can take my DJI drone on QR1 DOH-LHR, you can definitely take in in board.

Just note they do enhanced screening in Doha for flights to the UK.
