Abstract
A method is provided for managing an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). The UAV includes a first cell unit and a second cell unit connected in parallel. The method includes: detecting, by a first control circuit, whether a failure occurs in the first cell unit; detecting, by a second control circuit, whether a failure occurs in the second cell unit; establishing a communication between the first control circuit and the second control circuit; and in response to detecting a signal indicating that a failure occurs in the first cell or the second cell from the first control circuit or the second control circuit, reducing an output power of a propulsion device of the UAV.
