I have recently bought a Neo to add to my fleet. I have plans to use it in filming, but the prop noise is proving difficult to overcome. It does have built in sound recording but for some reason it cuts out around 30 sec mark and the quality is not great, but it does cut out all of the prop noise. I have tried to loose the prop noise in Resolve, with some success. But although it’s virtually inaudible it is still there. I think if I could isolate the exact frequency of the noise I could get rid of it completely, however that information does not seem to be available. If anyone has any ideas Please post.Thanks

The Neo does not have an on board microphone ?

@milkmanchris No , you are correct, It records using your phone’s mic but stores the files on the drone

If you don’t mind processing the audio seperately in a DAW like Reaper, or even the Fairlight section of Resolve, there are audio plug-ins available (including some free ones) that can cancel out a given source ‘noise’ from a recording.
I recently did this to remove background room ‘ambience’ from a video & audio recording of an amateur dramatics performance.

i bought some prop’s from amazon, to fit my Neo, they are a lot quieter, have a look on you tube, captain drone has done that, might help.
Hi, @Earwig Thanks for your comment. No i don’t mind using external software. I have Cubase & Mixcraft 9 which I use for Music creation (though I am a tad rusty). don’ know why but didn’t think about using plugins in Fairlight which would probably work out better keeping it all in the one program. Thanks for the tip

Hi @crapflyer, thanks for your comment and yeah they may be quieter, I have using Noise reduction in Fairlight gotten them to barely audible. Just need to go the last mile to INAUDIBLE.
Yeah, to be honest, I hadn’t really registered that you were already using Resolve. 
Hi, @Earwig I have downloaded denoiser from your link(Thanks). Have managed to figure out installing it to resolve, have not tried it out yet but will do later. Looks like it works similar to Fairlight’s built in noise removal. Once again thanks for the tip
