New to the forum and switching to DJI from multiple other drones where the mfg's have all dropped their consumer drones and went commercial/military...... Just sold my Typhoon H to get a Mavic unit (have not decided yet on which) and spending time on the forum.....
Just a quick chime in on the sound level. Sound Physics...... With all the notes above and doing some quick calculations..... I am really impressed that DJI was able to keep the sound level slightly above or better (to some) with a drone that is 173 grams heavier. Blades are slightly longer and slightly different in design but ****..... The physics of keeping the sound level down with a 23.5% increase in weight/load on the blades..... to me that's an improvement even if it's slightly louder.
To get better information we need to know the blade RPM's for comparison. Both drones hovering.... what RPM's are the blades going. Calculate using the blade pitch/chord/length for the lift and the sound pitch will be different...
Just my 2 cents. Really enjoy reading all the supportive and informative posts so far.....
Welcome!
Do a few forum searches for "low noise props" There was a lot of discussion and testing done with the release of the Mavic Pro Platinum and its "new" props. Everything you seek will be contained there!
