    Abstract: An aerial vehicle and a propeller thereof are provided. The propeller includes a hub and at least one blade. The hub is rotatable about a shaft, and the blade is mounted to the hub. The blade extends from the hub to a tip along a first direction and has a leading edge and a tailing edge opposite to the leading edge. The blade has a section along a second direction in an arbitrary position along the first direction. The second direction is perpendicular to the first direction. A section of the blade in a first position along the first direction has a first peak value of chord length, and a section of the blade in a second position along the first direction has a second peak value of chord length. The second position is between the first position and the tip.

    Abstract: An unmanned aerial vehicle and a landing method for unmanned aerial vehicle are provided. The unmanned aerial vehicle includes a positioning device and a processor. When the processor detects a fight status of the unmanned aerial vehicle, the processor obtains a current coordinate from the positioning device. According to the current coordinate, a predetermined route, and a plurality of emergency landing coordinates, the processor calculates a plurality of distances for the unmanned aerial vehicle moving from the current coordinate to each of the emergency landing coordinates along the predetermined route. According to a shortest distance among the plurality of distances, the processor obtains a target emergency landing coordinate. The processor controls the unmanned aerial vehicle to move to the target emergency landing coordinate along the predetermined route.

    Abstract: A monitoring system and a control method thereof are provided. The monitoring system includes a drone and a base station. The drone includes an IR detector. The base station includes a platform, a moving vehicle, an IR positioner, and a positioning apparatus. The drone is placed on the platform disposed on the moving vehicle. The IR positioner emits an infrared ray. The positioning apparatus includes a movement member and a positioning controller. The movement member is movably disposed on the platform. The positioning controller is coupled to the movement member. The drone moves to the platform according to the infrared ray. When the drone is located on the platform, the positioning controller controls the movement member to push the drone and move the drone to a specific position. Accordingly, the drone can take off or be landed immediately when the base station is moving or remains still.

    Abstract: A power supply control method and a monitoring system configured to implement the power supply control method are provided. The monitoring system includes a base station, a drone, and a processor. The base station includes a charging device. The charging device includes a power supply connector and a power source coupled to the power supply connector and outputting electric power through the power supply connector. The drone includes a battery configured to provide electric power to the drone and a charging connector configured to connect the battery and the power supply connector. When the charging connector is connected to the power supply connector, the processor determines an abnormal situation on the power supply connector or the drone according to an electrical characteristic during charging the battery by the power source. The abnormal situation is associated with a foreign object formed on the power supply connector or the drone.

    Abstract: A flight device includes a device body with a surface, a plurality of arm structures disposed in the device body and a plurality of rotor modules disposed to the arm structures respectively. Each arm structure includes a fixing base, a second screw element, a connecting unit, a rod body and a position-limiting element. The fixing base is disposed in the device body and includes a first screw element having a first screw part. The second screw element has a second screw part matched with the first screw part. The connecting unit drills through the second screw element. The connecting unit is locked to the fixing base by screwing the first and second screw parts with each other. The rod body drills through the connecting unit. The position-limiting element is disposed between the second screw element and the connecting unit. The position-limiting element abuts against the second screw element.
