Currently, only the video is usable from drone footage, which is a huge limitation. All drone footage either has music or an audio track from an external source overlaid on top of it.
I wonder if the propeller and wind noise could be cancelled or removed with some fancy algorithms. It wouldn't eliminate the produced noise, but it would at least make the audio track usable.

- dron57 4y agoI just want to watch Ukranian drone videos with glorious full sound Russian explosions without the annoying Ukranian techno.

- Ancapistani 4y agoI've used on-board audio a few times, but it's rough. The only case that comes to mind where it was really successful IMO is if you're using an FPV quad to chase a vehicle: race cars, dirt bikes, monster trucks, etc. All of those things are loud enough that they're clearly audible over the prop and wind noise. If anything, for dynamic chase footage, the sound of the quad's motors spinning up adds interest. Otherwise, you're not going to hear anything worthwhile from the air.
