The invention relates to the field of unmanned aerial vehicles, in particular to a multi-shaft unmanned aerial vehicle having solar panels. The multi-shaft unmanned aerial vehicle comprises a vehicle body, multiple shafts and multiple independent solar panels, wherein the multiple shafts outwards extend from the vehicle body in the transverse direction; any adjacent two shafts in the multiple shafts are spaced from each other to form an inter-shaft gap, therefore, multiple corresponding inter-shaft gaps are formed by the multiple shafts; the solar panels are used for converting solar energy to electric energy; and each solar panel is arranged in one corresponding inter-shaft gap in the multiple inter-shaft gaps to cover the corresponding inter-shaft gap. The solar panels are mounted on the multi-shaft unmanned aerial vehicle, can provide the electric energy to the multi-shaft unmanned aerial vehicle, and increase the hang time of the multi-shaft unmanned aerial vehicle. The solar panels are arranged in the inter-shaft gaps, so that idle spaces of the multi-shaft unmanned aerial vehicle are used.
