This application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 201710280239.2, entitled “Drone control method and device and drone” filed on Apr. 26, 2017, which is incorporated by reference in its entirety.

BACKGROUND

Technical Field

This application relates to the technical field of drone control, and more particularly to a drone control method and device and a drone.

Related Art

Drone is a reusable unmanned aerial vehicle operable to execute various tasks. The flight of the drone can be controlled using a wireless remote control and a control device of the drone.

With the rapid development of drone technologies, the stability of drones has been improved greatly. However, factors such as harsh flight environment or improper operation of the user may affect the normal flight of the drone or even lead to crashing of the drone.

Currently, after the drone crashes and falls onto the ground, manual search is required in order to find the location of the crashed drone, and the crashed drone cannot be located rapidly, greatly reducing the probability of finding back the crashed drone.

SUMMARY

To resolve the technical problem in the related art that the crashed drone cannot be located rapidly, this application provides a drone control method and device and a drone.

According to a first aspect, embodiments of this application provide a drone control method, including:

monitoring a running status of each power motor in a drone;

determining according to the running status of each power motor whether the drone is in a crashed state; and

controlling the drone to alarm when determining that the drone is in the crashed state.

According to a second aspect, the embodiments of this application provide a drone control device, including:

a power motor monitoring module, configured to monitor a running status of each power motor in a drone;

a crashed state determining module, configured to determine according to the running status of each power motor whether the drone is in a crashed state; and

an alarm module, configured to control the drone to alarm when determining that the drone is in the crashed state.

According to a third aspect, the embodiments of this application provide a drone, including:

at least one processor; and

a memory communicably connected to the at least one processor,

the memory storing instructions executable by the at least one processor, execution of the instructions by the at least one processor causing the at least one processor to execute the method according to the first aspect.

The technical solutions provided in the embodiments of this application may include the following beneficial effects:

by monitoring a running status of each power motor in a drone and controlling the drone to alarm after determining that the drone is in a crashed state, the drone control method and device and the drone can rapidly locate a crashed drone, greatly increasing the probability of finding back the crashed drone.

It should be understood that the above general descriptions and the following detailed descriptions are merely exemplary, and cannot limit this application.
