Abstract
The present invention discloses an unmanned aerial vehicle and a method for controlling a gimbal thereof. The method for controlling a gimbal includes: generating, by a flight control system, a yaw angular speed instruction of the unmanned aerial vehicle; and controlling, by a gimbal control system, a yaw axis motor of the gimbal according to the yaw angular speed instruction of the unmanned aerial vehicle. In the present invention, the yaw axis motor of the gimbal is jointly controlled by the flight control system and the gimbal control system, so that advantages of high-precision control and quick response of the gimbal control system are maximized. The advantages are used for compensating for deficiencies of the flight control system in yaw control, thereby improving the stability of a yaw channel of the gimbal, and completely resolving frame freezing of an aerial video when the unmanned aerial vehicle yaws at a low speed.
