Man that's exactly what I got it for. I have family just outside Cincinnati and went up a couple weeks ago. I took my 3D Buddy extra and got many flights on it while there. I visited the local field and it was, without a doubt, one of the nicest fields I've been to. Tons of shade trees for family and friends and strips two ways so wind isn't an issue. The fellows there were kind to a rebel visitor and were having a local war bird flyin. I flew mine once. Last day before heading home I dumb thumbed her late in the evening and pretty much totaled it. So I ordered the above equipment for replacement. I don't want to be without something to drag along on a trip.

As for the suitcase. Yes, if you want to take it apart, it will go back into the case. They have two wood tabs glued to the wing, two to the fuse. The wing screws on with them. The fuse is slotted to allow the servos to slide out. The wing removes from the fuse in one direction. The horiz. stab is also held on with screws and also slides out to store in the box. You will have to remove the prop too. Due to that, I said the heck with it. It will fit easily in just about any trunk or back seat. I have a Envoy and I can get my suitcases, dog kennel, and airplane in the back without letting the back seats down. I can also get my Jerry's Big Boy, my Sig Mayhem 3D, and electric in the Envoy. I have a carrier to stick in the hitch to carry all my field equipment and gas cans.
