G+_Jason Perry Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 Anyone looked at ways to make a quad quieter? Is there a way or do the motors make it a useless cause? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Carlton Dodd Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 The props make the noise, so there may be a way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Ben Reese Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 If the props are making the noise, it seems like someone might have mentioned carbon fiber props vibrate and flex less so probably make less noise. It was also mentioned that crazy multi rotor electric airplane used props with different pitches to help reduce the perceived noise, so perhaps someone could experiment with different props on the front and back.

But for propellers, this YouTube video: Skip to around 6 minutes to see how ducted propellers can help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
