Bees Not Bothered By Buzzing Mavic Air

The Mavic Air's sound has been compared to a swarm of buzzing bees. Apparently the buzzing sound of my MA did not seem to make these bees nervous!

Careful around them. They can get sucked up and killed rather easily. We are running low on bees.

But my mavic Pro seems to attract bugs like you wouldn’t believe. I have a theory they think it’s the queen bug or something.

Agreed! I didn’t even see these until I was editing the video, it was so bright out that day. And I have noticed a lot of small insects on my bird as well, mostly on the props.

Was that audio the original from your MA footage?

Great perspective on the Saguaro blossoms! Re: the bees, I would think as long as you are above them, the prop wash will keep them out of your MA. If you get below them all bets are off.
