Problems solved by technology

The disadvantages are also obvious, especially for multi-rotor oil-electric hybrid drones, which involve more motors and more complicated control procedures
Especially for novices, it is difficult to read a thick manual to figure out how to control the flight, and once there is a mistake in the operation, it may cause damage to the drone and cause loss to the user

Embodiment 1

[0109] A compact multi-rotor oil-electric hybrid UAV, such as figure 1 As shown, it includes a fuselage 1 and a plurality of rotors 2 evenly spaced on the side of the fuselage. The bottom of the fuselage 1 is provided with an engine module 3, a generator module 4 and a pan-tilt assembly 5, such as figure 2 As shown, the top of the fuselage 1 is provided with a fuel tank 6; the inside of the fuselage 1 is provided with a control system (not marked in the figure), and the fuselage 1 includes a first fixed plate 11 and a second fixed plate 12, The engine module 3, the generator module 4 and the platform assembly 5 are located at the lower end of the first fixed plate 11, the engine module 3 is connected with the generator module 4, and the engine module 3 can drive the generator The module 4 is running, and the generator module 4 and the pan-tilt assembly 5 are electrically connected to the control system respectively;

[0110] Such as figure 2 As shown, the rotor 2 is hinged...

Embodiment 2

[0138] The present invention also provides a method for controlling an oil-electric hybrid multi-rotor UAV. The method specifically includes the following steps:

[0139] engine start, such as Figure 7 shown, including the following steps:

[0140] A1: Connect the power supply of the engine and keep the engine at idle speed;

[0141] A2: Use the engine starter to start the engine, remove the starter after ignition;

[0142] A3: On the remote control end, turn the engine control switch to the "Run" position;

[0143] A4: Run stably for about 1 minute to warm up the engine;

[0144] In step A1, the power supply is a battery provided on the drone. In order not to increase the weight of the drone, the battery is mainly used for starting the drone, so the volume and weight are relatively small. The start of the engine can be controlled by the remote control terminal, and the engine can be started by turning the control knob of the remote control to the running position.

Abstract

The invention discloses an oil and electricity hybrid multi-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle control system and method. The oil and electricity hybrid multi-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle control system comprises a fuselage and a plurality of rotors evenly arranged on the side faces of the fuselage at intervals. An engine module, a generator module and a cradle head assembly are arranged at the bottomof the fuselage, and an oil tank is arranged at the top end of the fuselage. A control system body is arranged in the fuselage, and the fuselage comprises a first fixing board and a second fixing board. The engine module, the generator module and the cradle head assembly are arranged at the lower end of the first fixing board, and the engine module is connected with a generator and can drive thegenerator to operate. The generator and the cradle head assembly are electrically connected with the control system body. The control system body comprises a plurality of control main boards arrangedbetween the first fixing board and the second fixing board, the control main boards comprise power supply main boards, and an image transmission main board, an engine and generator control main board,a flight control main board, a remote control main board and a plurality of control interfaces are formed in the power supply main boards, wherein the image transmission main board, the engine and generator control main board, the flight control main board, the remote control main board and the multiple control interfaces are formed parallel to the planes where the power supply main boards are located.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of a hybrid electric drone, in particular to a control system and a control method for a hybrid multi-rotor drone. Background technique [0002] With the development of high-tech, unmanned aerial vehicle technology continues to make breakthroughs, unmanned aerial vehicle will be developed rapidly and more widely used. In the field of drones, although a series of advanced technologies such as visual positioning, high-definition image transmission, and sensory barriers continue to develop, the fundamental problem of battery life has not been effectively resolved. [0003] The multi-rotor UAV relies on the lift generated by multiple rotors to balance the gravity of the aircraft, so that the aircraft can fly, and the stability and attitude of the aircraft can be controlled by changing the speed of each rotor. Therefore, the multi-rotor aircraft can hover and fly at any speed within a certain speed range. It is ...
