I gotta weigh in on the side of caution here. You will be shipping something that is potentially explosive. There are proper means of doing this - contact your shipping company of choice, and they can tell you what it would take to safely ship this item. It may end up being prohibitively expensive. Maybe getting an ammo box at a surplus store, and ship it in a lipo sack would be sufficient. The weight of the box will drive up your cost, but it'd be safe.

Now, on the other hand, if one of those jumbo's does go down, it'll likely mean another order for us, and I'd love to build another airplane! Just kidding......the fire suppresion systems would quickly have that fire put out, and all we'd have is a few soaked and charred packages - and more than one unhappy customer.
