My mini drone can be heard from 200 feet up easily if you are underneath it. If its 100 or lower everyone around can hear it. 400feet is the maximum allowed height.
Have to remember too that carrying packages will require more thrust. Also, they would probably be large enough that big birds don’t try or fail to take them down. I was flying a ~35g drone around my yard last year and a hawk of some kind snatched it right out of the air and tried to kill it on top of a tree. Thankfully got it back with some diplomacy (yelling at bird) and no one was hurt. Drone still flies to this day…
Pretty sure these have the new propeller shape that cuts noise by like 80% or something. See Mark Rober’s video if you are interested :https://youtu.be/DOWDNBu9DkU?t=831
you won’t hear them at 100ft especially if there’s any ambient noise around you at all.
to be fair, at the height these things will be flying, you won’t hear them on most days.

That must be one crazy loud drone.
All the ones I fly, including others are practically silent past 100ft…
What RPM/blade diameter is your mini-drone? the smaller ones are louder because of the higher RPM’s
Mini 3 pro. Thats probably true about the rpm i have no idea tho

Got it on camera too, the claws look massive.
