The invention relates to an unmanned aerial vehicle control power transferring method. The method comprises steps: 1) a power grabbing-new control party sends a power grabbing instruction to the unmanned aerial vehicle; after the unmanned aerial vehicle receives the power grabbing instruction, power grabbing inquiry and verification are returned; the new control party calculates a power grabbing response code according to a power grabbing key algorithm and a related verification logic, and the power grabbing response code is sent to the unmanned aerial vehicle; after the unmanned aerial vehicle receives the response code, whether the response code sent by the new control party is matched is verified by the same algorithm and the logic, if yes, the new control party grabs the control powerfor the unmanned aerial vehicle, or otherwise, power grabbing fails; and 2) a normal control power handover-new control party sends a control power application instruction to the original control party through the unmanned aerial vehicle, after the original control party receives the control power application instruction, the related information of the new control party is verified, the control power is transferred if requirements are met, or otherwise, the control power is kept. According to the unmanned aerial vehicle control power transferring method in the invention, the safety, the reliability, the survival probability and the task execution efficiency of the unmanned aerial vehicle can be improved significantly, and the risks that the unmanned aerial vehicle is decoyed and disturbedcan be reduced.
