An unmanned aircraft includes: a sensor that includes at least a microphone that generates sound data; and a processor. The processor determines the quality of a target sound by use of the sound data generated by the microphone, identifies a sound source direction from the unmanned aircraft to the sound source of the target sound by use of data generated by the sensor, and controls an unmanned aircraft state that is a state of the unmanned aircraft such that a direction of a sound pickup area is aligned with the sound source direction, in accordance with the determined quality. The sound pickup area is a range in which sound pickup quality of the microphone is higher than that of another area.
