Abstract:
1. A method for piloting, by means of a remote control apparatus, a rotary wing drone with multiple rotors driven by respective motors that can be controlled in a differentiated manner to pilot the drone attitude-wise and speed-wise, comprising the following steps: by the apparatus ( by the drone ( wherein this method comprises the following additional steps: acquisition of first orientation data (ψ acquisition of second orientation data (ψ computation of a relative angular orientation datum (Δψ) of the drone in relation to the apparatus, from said first and second orientation data; and realignment of the reference frame of the apparatus on the reference frame of the drone, by application to the piloting commands of a rotation that is a function of said relative angular orientation datum, so as to thus produce realigned setpoint values according to the pitch and roll axes of the drone which are a function of the inclinations, applied to the apparatus by the user according to the pitch and roll axes thereof, considered in the local reference frame linked to the apparatus and no longer in that linked to the drone.
