An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) with audio filtering components includes a background noise-producing component, a background microphone, and a noise emitter. The background noise-producing component is configured to produce a background noise. The background microphone is positioned within a proximity sufficiently close to collect interfering noise from the background noise producing component. The background microphone is configured to collect audio data including the background noise. The noise emitter is disposed within a proximity sufficiently close to the background noise-producing component to reduce the interfering noise. The noise emitter is configured to emit an audio signal having a reverse phase of the audio data collected by the background microphone.
