Are all cinewhoops inherently loud?

[hot flower]

So I’m currently flying the avata and I can’t help but notice how damn loud this drone is. Is there anyway to modify it using different props that may reduce noise or what exactly could be done to decrease the noise?

[unkempt anvil]

Yes. they all are loud. lifting heavy weights with small fast spinning props is loud. Noise could be reduced with higher pitched props or a higher blade count, but both of those kill efficiency. also, the props are proprietary, so you couldn't fit another prop on without modifying the drone.

Yea they sell custom props for the avata on Amazon

I’m just wondering if that’s really gonna help much

[unkempt anvil]

when some low budget company with a name like Sheji Shibai comes along with a prop, it's probably best to avoid. If Master Airscrew, Gemfan, or HQprops releases a DJI Avata prop, then it might be worth trying, but there isn't a lot of meat left on that bone for improvement.

Yea I thought so, they’re basically just replacement props with no differences anyways

I bought the master airscrew props for the original FPV drone and they worked out great so I was hoping they would make some for the avata soon

The reason I thought about the noise was because I saw a police activity video where they used a drone to get info on a subject and the drone was dead silent in the audio playback

Not sure if they used some audio tech to remove the drone noise or if the drone is just actually that damn quiet

if u have a dji drone that makes sense bc they dont record audio and the mics that the cops r wearing are good enough to take out the noise from the drone

Yea I know the drone isn’t recording sound but I would expect the cop mics to record some minimal sound coming from the drone at least
