One can expect the larger drone (Mavic 3 Pro) to be louder. To me, there wasn't much of a difference between the Air 2s and Mini 4. The Avata of course makes the typical FTP drone noise.

I noticed if I took the slider on the bottom of the clip and ran it back and forth to allow a quick, near side by side comparison, the Mini 4 won, hands down. The Avata was like an ice pick in my ear.

I held my Apple Watch (with sound measuring capability) up to my computer speaker and got these readings from your movie:

mini 4p 53 dB
M3P. 60 dB
Air 2S 60 dB
Avata 70 dB

I have a Mini 3 Pro - the lower sound level I truly love.

I held my Apple Watch (with sound measuring capability) up to my computer speaker and got these readings from your movie:

mini 4p 53 dB
M3P. 60 dB
Air 2S 60 dB
Avata 70 dB

It is important to note a 3 db increase is perceived as twice as loud. At least, that is what I have read.
I love my “stealth drone”, the Mini 3.
