DJI Flip Vs. DJI Neo – The Truth About Drone Noise Levels!

I just watched a video from Mr. Ken Heron. I don’t know if you’ve ever heard of him, but obviously his hearing is going bad. He has beautiful hair, but his ears aren’t working right. He did a Огляд on the Flip and gave it a lot of hate—as many people do. While there are a few reasons to criticize this drone, I don’t think it deserves as much as it’s getting. One thing he showed was the difference in noise level between the Flip and the Neo.

I’m here to prove to him and everyone else that he is just deaf. I’m going to use my DJI Mic Mini to compare the audio—not only the volume but also the pitch—of both drones. Today, we will find out once and for all which one sounds the most irritating.

First, let’s start with the Flip. I grabbed my controller, raised the Flip, held the Mic Mini right next to it, increased the altitude (and therefore the RPMs), and then brought it down. I repeated this a couple of times before moving on to the Neo.

Alright, here goes the DJI Flip. It’s kind of noisy, right? Now, let’s compare it to the DJI Neo. Here goes the Neo.

What do you think? Has Ken completely lost his hearing, or was he right? Go watch his video and listen to the comparison he makes during a hover test. Yes, the Flip does sound a little bit louder in that setting, but when you actually perform some functional testing, the Neo is by far the most irritating drone on the market. I don’t know how Ken thinks the Flip is worse, but Ken, I love you—but you really should get your hearing checked.

Thanks for watching this video, everyone. Have a great day and, as always, fly safe and fly smart.
