Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) containing rechargeable lithium batteries (not exceeding 100 watt-hour capacity each) may be carried in your baggage.

If the batteries are installed in the UAS, it may be carried in both checked or hand-carry baggage. However, if the batteries are removed, or if you are intending to carry spare batteries, such batteries must be carried in hand-carry baggage only.

Spare batteries must also be individually protected by insulating terminals to prevent short circuits, e.g. by taping over exposed terminals or placing each battery in a separate plastic bag or protective pouch.
