ESC might have more of an impact than you think, I work with machine tools, we have three phase and single phase motors, the single phase ones (actually they're two phase, the second being created by a 90° shift via a condenser) are always noisier the the three phase ones so I can imagine that running a motor on a square wave pattern rather than a pure sine one will have some impact in term of micro vibrations which lead to noise.
You have a point about esc in general but were talking about this little quad, the only noise you can hear coming from the mavic pro is fan noise. 99 % of the noise coming from a quad while in flight is prop noise, doesn't matter what it has in it for an electronic speed controller. I think dji is just trying to justify the higher price. The mavic platinum is the most un-exciting upgrade I've ever seen.... |
