I did my own test
ultimate Sharpest Aperture is F5 or F5.6
Sharp Aperture anything within F2.8-F7
Softer less Sharp Aperture Anything beyound F7


In Mavic 3 Which F-Aperture is the Sharpest Aperture you guys found and what's the Worst/Softest Aperture we Shouldn't to be on...
Have anyone did the test ..

In Mavic 2 Pro-f2.8-f4
I am Planning to do one...

Pretty much as expected for any lens. Sharpest in the middle apertures. At higher f stops, diffraction starts degrading the sharpness. Wide open loses a little sharpness.

TBH, on my copy, sharpness is so similar in flight that I just let aperture be dictate by the other aspects of the shot. Diffraction limits are probably kicking in after like f/6.3, so I'd steer away from that.

You should use the same ISO and different shutter speed. For f/11 you use ISO 1140. High ISO kills sharpness.

I do the same. I get as close as I can with an ND filter, set my desired settings, then let the aperture adjust as needed. Within reason. If I’m close on my filter I live in the F4 range most of the time.
