The Stellarvue's cases have had good reviews.
The one shown here has the focuser removed for aircraft carry if req.

I also went with Pelican, but rather than cutting foam to line it with, I simply added a dovetail clamp to base of case. Enables me to keep EFW, OAG etc all connected and ready to go.

For the amazing padding look at https://www.amazon.co.uk/Hockey-Kit-Bag-New-2018/dp/B07KQ8QHLD/ref=sr_1_3?adgrpid=50724974782&hvadid=259091042858&hvdev=c&hvlocphy=20343&hvnetw=g&hvpos=1t1&hvqmt=e&hvrand=4426441207558885660&hvtargid=kwd-319656474895&keywords=hockey+bags+adidas&qid=1553510659&s=gateway&sr=8-3&tag=googhydr-21


People tend to overlook sports kit bags, I keep all my Gitzo tripods and Wimberley heads in them and a lot easier to carry than a heavy case with no or almost no handles
