Cooling fan on all the time?

Silly question folks. I exchanged my P4 for another P4 at Apple due to the gimbal making a little screech noise when I'm moving the drone around. Unfortunately, the gimbal still makes a noise.

But, when I turn my P4 on, no matter what, there is a fan on underneath the body that's always on. I assume is cooling it's processor etc. However, I don't recall this being on in my other drone and looking at videos, I see others with the drone on and it's dead silent. I may be paranoid because of the issues I had previously.

Anyone know if that's normal?
 
Mine turns on usually within 15-30 seconds when the ambient temperature is about 25c.

I did an IMU calibration last night and had it sitting in the aircon and got it down to about 18c. It took about 45 seconds before it turned on.
