Unmanned flying object and flight control method thereof
First Claim
1. An unmanned flying object comprising:
- a position sensor that acquires first positional information indicating a position of the unmanned flying object;
a wireless communicator that receives, from an operation device that operates the unmanned flying object, second positional information indicating a position of the operation device; and
circuitry that, in operation,when the wireless communicator receives a position reset command from the operation device, determines a rotation angle, with respect to a horizontal, needed to orient a movement direction of the unmanned flying object in a predetermined direction in accordance with the first positional information and the second positional information, andperforms control to orient the movement direction of the unmanned flying object in the predetermined direction in accordance with the rotation angle.
