Trying to buy/build a hunting cargo emtb that can fly in checked luggage

[Cancertable]

I’m looking into buying/building a hunting emtb that could travel with me in checked luggage. It needs to be able to carry me (120lbs) my hunting/camping gear (20ish lbs with rifle/bow) and up to 200lbs of elk meat.

• Packable (folding?), max weight 50lb.
• Commercial airline acceptable.
• Max. GVW 400 lbs.
• 20 MPH.
• Trail worthy and needs to climb and go down hills
• 20mph would probably be the fastest I’d need to go.
• Budget is flexible since I know the design is very constrained but hoping to be around the $3000 range.
• At least 20mi or so.
• Temp from 80F down to slightly below freezing.
• I can pedal about 140 watts all day.
• I was considering using a lightweight trailer for the meat

Was also considering a wheelbarrow and ebike separately for hunting/packing out meat. Also a gas motorized bike could be a better option if not for the noise issue.

I’d probably try to use a bunch of grin 100w batteries to get through tsa. This will probably get me a battery of about 1000wh if I can get 10 on the plane. Although I would need a plan b if tsa decides to screw me over.

I was suggested to get a sturdy dual suspension MTB, one with massive shock travel intended for huge hucks on downhill runs but i will need to be sure if it will be light enough to be under 50lbs including case.

Is this even feasible? Any other solutions?

I think you're gonna need an electric moto bike fella.
With the awkward shape of rifles and the clothes I presume you're gonna need for hunting it'll be a bastad to pedal an emtb.
If yo did go emtb then this might be useful.....

Dunno about flying this stuff around, I thought with the volatility of the batteries it was a no-go.
