Abstract
A flying device includes a base, thrusters, an orientation detection unit, an abnormality detection unit, and an orientation control unit. The plurality of thrusters are provided on the base each including a propeller, a motor which drives the propeller, and a pitch change mechanism unit which changes a pitch of the propeller. The orientation detection unit detects an orientation of the base. The abnormality detection unit detects an abnormality in the thrusters. The orientation control unit, when the abnormality detection unit detects an abnormality in at least one of the thrusters, changes the pitches of the propellers in the remaining thrusters to maintain an orientation of the base detected by the orientation detection unit.
