A drone produces an average sound of 80 decibels. On the upper end of that average are larger enterprise drones. A vacuum cleaner, on average, produces 65 decibels, so you can get a sense of how loud that is. The loudness of drones are very accurately discussed here.
How loud did you think drones were?

Not a quantatative answer, but I know my Mavic Mini One makes more noise than my Mavic 2 Zoom. And can be heard from further away.

The pitch of the Mini One sets my teeth on edge.

I can say that this is much nicer.  Possibly because of the bigger props.

By then all the angst and joys of those first to buy will be aired here to help my decision. I'm still firmly on the fence for now

Just posted my first 360 from it,    totally created by the drone.

And if you fancy something different - here's an oak tree - https://www.instagram.com/p/Cdu_ ... ce=ig_web_copy_link

Its very much a summer camera,    Ive seen this try for a while now and was waiting for the right weather.   Sadly I had to park in the lay-by and then walk back up the grass verge for about 1.5 miles and then climb through the trees to get a clear shot.

I must go back and photograph that oak tree in Whaley Bridge that I posted in March under the Title Ageless.  It will be in full leaf by now.

Im often drawn to oak trees but especially I they are totally isolated,   this one has been on my to do list for a while as I wanted the bands above and below.  Ideally it would have been a cloudless sky.  Maybe next time.

A 3 mile walk to photograph a tree shows real dedication
I've only got to walk through the park to my oak tree - and that's about a mile in total.
Then into our favourite café for Brunch

Ah. Now I get it. Not sure they'd be available for the Mini One. Each motor only has two single blades attached individually by a single screw each. No way to fit a third.
