Battery monitor-based flight control method and flight control device

Abstract

The invention provides a flight control method based on battery monitor. The method is used for controlling the flight of an unmanned aerial vehicle. The method comprises the following steps: acquiring current remained power of the battery, current position and current height of an unmanned aerial vehicle according to the first set interval time; calculating the minimum electricity of flight according to the current position and the destination location of the unmanned aerial vehicle; calculating the minimum electricity of landing according to the current height of the unmanned aerial vehicle; calculating the first flight threshold electricity of the unmanned aerial vehicle according to the minimum electricity of flight and minimum electricity of landing; and comparing the first flight threshold electricity with the current remained electricity, and prompting a user to make a return voyage or land when the current remained electricity is less than or equal to the first flight threshold electricity. The invention further provides a battery monitor based flight control device. The device and the method can be used for well improving the flight efficiency of an unmanned aerial vehicle and avoiding occurrence of power down.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of unmanned aerial vehicle control, in particular to a flight control method and a flight control device based on electricity monitoring. Background technique [0002] Unmanned aerial vehicles have begun to enter the consumer market, but due to the size and load of unmanned aerial vehicles, the endurance of unmanned aerial vehicles has always been limited. [0003] The way to deal with the power management problem of unmanned aerial vehicles in the prior art is still very crude. Specifically, it is based on a pre-estimated threshold. When the power reaches this threshold, the unmanned aerial vehicle will remind the operator to perform the return operation , and this threshold is usually derived from experience. [0004] In actual use, the experience of users and the endurance of UAVs are different. The setting of the threshold is very subjective. If the threshold is set too large, the efficiency of the UAV to complet...
