Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention relate to a flight direction display method and apparatus, and an unmanned aerial vehicle. The method includes: obtaining a flight direction indication of an aircraft sent by a camera system, where the flight direction indication is determined by the camera system according to a relative angle between a camera apparatus and the aircraft; and displaying the flight direction indication of the aircraft on a shooting preview screen. In this way, a flight direction of the aircraft is controlled according to the flight direction indication, so that in a shooting process, a flight direction of a fuselage of the aircraft is the same as a rotation direction of the camera apparatus, so as to shoot content wanted by the camera apparatus, thereby improving user experience.

Abstract: A tilt driving mechanism comprises a housing fixedly mounted on the aircraft, a driving mechanism mounted in the housing, and a mounting seat flexibly mounted on the housing. A power unit is fixedly mounted on the mounting seat, and the driving mechanism is fixedly connected to the mounting seat, so as to drive the mounting seat to rotate with respect to the housing. The tilt driving mechanism is disposed on the aircraft, and a rotation angle of the tilt driving mechanism is controlled with high precision to change a direction of the power unit, so that the power unit switches between a lift force providing position and a thrust providing position. Meanwhile, the driving mechanism is disposed in the tilt driving mechanism, thereby significantly reducing a torque of the driving mechanism, facilitating miniaturization design of the tilt driving mechanism, and improving stability and safety of the tilt driving mechanism.
