If it’s carry on luggage, it probably doesn’t need to be in a Pelican style hard case.

Why not look at those foam padded bags? Rockville and Gator make them in all sorts of configurations. 1RU, 2RU etc. Some have an aluminium frame inside the foam.

That’s what I’d do. Hell of a lot lighter, compact and I think would be durable enough as carry on luggage. Probably wouldn’t throw it in as checked baggage though.

yes, an option

however sometimes the plane overhead gets full before you get on the plane, then you HAVE to gate check your carry on bag, and good luck with a Carbon interface in a lightweight rack bag.... it is pretty likely to get bent / damaged / etc.
