Unmanned aerial vehicle and control method of unmanned aerial vehicle

Abstract

A control method of an unmanned aerial vehicle (1a, 1b, 1c) and an unmanned aerial vehicle (1a, 1b, 1c) are provided. The control method includes generating a return command to make the unmanned aerial vehicle (1a, 1b, 1c) to perform a return movement, which includes at least one cruise phase during which flight parameters of the unmanned aerial vehicle (1a, 1b, 1c) are measured, allowing the unmanned aerial vehicle (1a, 1b, 1c) to enter a high wind blockage state when it is determined that the unmanned aerial vehicle (1a, 1b, 1c) is in the high wind blockage state based on the flight parameters; measuring flight parameters in the high wind blockage state; and allowing the unmanned aerial vehicle (1a, 1b, 1c) to enter the cruise phase when it is determined that the unmanned aerial vehicle(1a, 1b, 1c) is out of the high wind blockage state based on the flight parameters.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of unmanned aerial vehicles, and in particular to a method for controlling an unmanned aerial vehicle and the unmanned aerial vehicle. Background technique [0002] The UAV may encounter strong winds during the flight process such as return flight and normal operation. When the wind is strong, the forward flight component of the UAV may not be enough to counteract the wind, which will reduce the speed of the UAV and even make the UAV stall. Wind can also cause the drone to veer significantly from its preset heading. However, the existing technology does not detect strong winds, and UAVs will not avoid strong winds during flight, which may easily cause the power of the UAV to run out and fail to reach the target point, affecting the flight safety of the UAV. Contents of the invention [0003] The present disclosure provides a method for controlling a UAV, which includes: generating a return command to enab...

Problems solved by technology

Wind can also cause the drone's heading to deviate significantly from the preset heading

However, the existing technology does not detect strong winds, and the drone will not avoid the strong wind during flight, which may easily cause the drone to run out of power and fail to reach the target point, affecting the flight safety of the drone.
