Moreover, the fixing member 2 is connected with the body of the unmanned aerial vehicle, and the mounting end 102 of the support frame 1 is connected with the fixing member 2, so that the support frame 1 is connected with the mounting base through the fixing member 2. The mounting base is the body part of the unmanned aerial vehicle or other aircraft.
[0035] Preferably, in the embodiment, the fixing member 2 is provided with two groups, which correspond to the two support frames 1 respectively, to ensure the stability before and after the position adjustment of the support frame 1.
[0036] In some possible embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The fixing member 2 includes a guide part 21 and two fixing parts 22. The guide part 21 is arranged to be connected with the mounting base and has a guide groove 211. The mounting end 102 of the two support parts is movably arranged in the guide groove 211 and can slide along the guide groove 211, thereby supporting the support end 101 to switch between the unfolded state and the storage state. In addition, the two fixing parts 22 are connected with the guide part 21 and the two mounting ends 102, and are used to lock or unlock the relative position of the two mounting ends 102 in the guide groove 211, so that the support end 101 can be flexibly switched between the states.
[0037] In one of the embodiments, please refer to Figures 1 to 5The guide part 21 comprises a guide rail 212 and two sliding blocks 213, and the fixing part 22 comprises a movable block 221 and a fixing rod 222.

When it is necessary to unlock, the screw rod is rotated in the opposite direction and is rotated out of the threaded groove. When the fixing rod 222 is a clamping rod, the first fixing groove 223 is a clamping groove, and the clamping rod cooperates with the clamping groove. By pushing the clamping rod into the clamping groove, the relative fixation between the movable block 221 and the guide rail 212 can be achieved. When it is necessary to unlock, the clamping rod is pulled out of the clamping groove.
