An orientation control method for a drone (3) is disclosed. The method receives wireless signal sent wirelessly from a target device (5) by at least three receivers (33) arranged on the drone (5), and detects the phase of the wireless signal respectively received by each of the three receivers (33) with a phase detector (34) of the drone. Next, the method calculates current relative orientation of the drone (3) with respect the target device (5) through a phase differences of the three phases of the three receivers (33). Next, the method controls the drone (3) to move to orientate user-designated direction according to the calculated current relative orientation and a directional signal sent wirelessly from a remote control (4).
