Various embodiments include a drone having a landing control device that is configured to rotate wings into an auto-rotation descent configuration causing the drone to enter a nose-down attitude and spin about a long axis of the drone, and to collectively control pivot angles of the wings to enables control of descent rate and lateral motion during an auto-rotation descent. The landing control device may be a landing carousel including a pivotal frame secured to a drone body and configured to rotate about a carousel axis extending laterally relative to a longitudinal axis of the body. The landing carousel may include a first wing motor configured to pivot a first wing about a wing pivot axis extending parallel to the carousel axis, and a second wing motor configured to pivot a second wingabout the wing pivot axis independent of the pivot the first wing.
各个实施例包括具有着陆控制设备的无人机,着陆控制设备被配置为:将机翼旋转成自动旋转下降配置,以使得无人机进入机头朝下的姿态并且绕无人机的长轴自旋;以及共同控制机翼的枢转角,以使能够在自动旋转下降期间控制下降速率和横向运动。着陆控制设备可以是包括枢转框架的着陆转盘,枢转框架固定到无人机机体并且被配置为绕相对于机体的纵轴横向延伸的转盘轴旋转。着陆转盘可以包括:第一机翼电动机,其被配置为:绕平行于转盘轴延伸的机翼枢转轴来枢转第一机翼;以及第二机翼电动机,其被配置为:绕机翼枢转轴独立于对第一机翼的枢转来枢转第二机翼。
