Watching that video again (I had seen it on their site) reminded me that not only does that roller itself weigh 8.6 pounds, but if their recommended Camera Cube weights 1.87 pounds… without dividers.
Add dividers (who doesn’t?) and we’re looking at around 11 pounds just for the roller and the camera cube. If you fly Lufthansa (and a few others) that leaves maybe 7.5 pounds for your camera gear before you go over the weight limit. Yikes!
I’m betting that, in typical PD fashion, the luggage is solid and quite protective, but it isn’t going to be light.
On a more positive note, it looks like the Kickstarter link has been updated to address the speculation expressed by one person in this thread that the bags physical measurements would be too large. They have now posted a bunch of photos of the thing in the bag size check bins for a lot of airlines. It fits.
