Will sound a lot noisier indoors, when it's 250 ft in the air you can hardly hear it. Good luck..

Go ahead, try your hand at DJI service if you are so inclined. I can tell you, that I have a P4 and P4P and both of them sound similar. No issues, many many successful flights.

Your Phantom has an internal fan to prevent overheating.
That's what you can hear.

Why did you even bother to ask for help if you were going to exchange it anyway?

Sure, there may be units that are quieter, but that does not mean yours if faulty. That noise level is nothing to be concerned about.

The fan can kick in sooner depending on the temperature of the room and whether or not you've been playing with it prior and did not let it cool down. The noise level of the fan is normal. If the sound is louder, has a higher pitch, or is not consistent (clicking etc.), then the fan may have an issue.

So far, that video indicates that the fan is working normally. If your replacement has the same sound, then you're fine.
