Has anyone ever put their glide cam in their carry on? Its not a weapon but its a weird metal rod I'm not really sure what TSA would think about it. Any advice?

I break it down and distribute the parts amongst my clothes. Along with my guitar pedals and, avy gear, and harddrive enclosures my luggage is probably very "suspicious" looking yet I've had no problems.
