Abstract

Based on the background of the field of unmanned system and agricultural unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), which integrates mechanical engineering, control, computer and other disciplines, and considering the importance of Python programming combined with engineering application for the undergraduates’ engineering training, the College of Engineering of China Agricultural University has opened an elective experimental course “UAV Control experiment” for the undergraduates majoring in mechanical-electronic engineering. This course guides students through their interests and focuses on cultivating students’ practicality and innovation. The content of the course combines the virtual with the real, which is designed from two aspects of UAV virtual simulation control flight and UAV flight control by programming. The experimental content is in a gradual way and the difficulty is moderate. The grading scheme for this course is reasonable, which focuses on the students’ participation during the experiments. The grading is based on three aspects: performance in the experiment, experimental demonstration results, and the course paper submitted after the course. In the end, this course realized the guidance to the undergraduates in technological innovation, the inspiration to the postgraduates in research direction, and the impact on admissions promotion for the university.
