Abstract

A central control system of a wireless remote-control model is capable of controlling a flight safety and effectively according to an operation control instruction signal data or a detector detection data instead of a single control value. Information such as the control, movement and abnormal detection of an electronic control machine installed on the wireless remote-control model are managed, determined and controlled jointly, so as to improve the safety and operability of the wireless remote-control model.
