Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of unmanned aerial vehicle applications, in particular to a detachable unmanned aerial vehicle positioning module. Background Art

[0002] A drone is an aircraft that uses wireless remote control or program control to perform specific aviation missions. It is a powered aerial vehicle that does not carry an operator. It uses aerodynamics to provide the required lift for the aircraft and can fly automatically or be remotely guided. It can be used once and can be recovered. It can carry lethal and non-lethal payloads.

[0003] When using existing drones, they are generally used in uninhabited areas or relatively dangerous places. If a drone malfunctions or is damaged by a collision during use, the user cannot find the falling location in time, and thus cannot retrieve the damaged drone. Some parts inside the drone cannot be recycled and reused, which increases the production cost of the drone and makes it impossible to further upgrade the damaged drone. Therefore, the utility model proposes a detachable drone positioning module. Utility Model Content
