Abstract

The embodiment of the invention provides an unmanned plane firmware upgrading device, method and a terminal. The unmanned plane firmware upgrading method comprises steps of responding clicked operation of a first control to obtain latest version firmware, responding clicked operation of a second control to push the latest version firmware to an unmanned plane, sending an upgrading instruction to the unmanned plane after the latest version firmware push is completed, verifying an upgrading result when the unmanned plane firmware upgrade is finished, and stopping executing take-off action for the unmanned plane if the upgrade fails. In the embodiment, a connection between a PC and the unmanned plane via a USB connection line is unnecessary, and unmanned firmware upgrading can be achieved via wireless network, so the upgrading process of the unmanned plane can be simplified; and user experience can be enhanced.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of firmware upgrades, in particular to a UAV firmware upgrade device, method and terminal. Background technique [0002] UAV is an unmanned aerial vehicle that is mainly controlled by radio remote control or its own program, has automatic navigation and performs special tasks. Whether it is a radio remote control or self-programmed UAV, a flight controller must be installed in the UAV. The main job of the flight controller is to read the preset parameters or receive remote control commands from an external remote control device to control The flight of the UAV is controlled, and the data monitored by various recording devices and sensing devices in the UAV are received. After the UAV leaves the factory, the manufacturer may also perform maintenance on the UAV, such as performance improvement, bug fixes, or adding functions, usually by upgrading the firmware. [0003] In the prior art, it is general...
