# 载具选择

PX4支持空中,表面(地面,水面)以及水下载具。 您可以在机架参考中查看已经经过PX4测试/调整过的载具类型或及其变种(“框架”)。

选择何种机架取决于您需要用来做什么:

  • Multicopters offer precision hovering and vertical takeoff, at the cost of shorter and generally slower flight. PX4有可以让它们很容易飞的模式,并且它们是最受欢迎的飞行器。
  • Helicopters similar to Multicopters, mechanically more complex, but more efficient.
  • Fixed-wing airplanes offer longer and faster flight, and hence better coverage for ground surveys etc. 但是它们比多旋翼更难飞行和降落,并且如果您需要悬停或飞得很慢时,它们就不再合适(例如在勘测垂直建筑时)。
  • VTOL (Vertical Takeoff and Landing) aircraft come in a number of types: tiltrotors, tailsitters, quadplanes etc. 它们拥有二者(多旋翼和固定翼)优点:能够像多旋翼那样垂直起飞然后转变到像固定翼飞机那样向前飞行。 They are often more expensive than either multicopters and fixed-wing aircraft, and harder to build and tune.
  • Airships/Balloons are lighter-than-air vehicles that typically offer high altitude long duration flight, often at the cost of having limited (or no) control over speed and direction of flight.
  • Rovers are car-like ground vehicles. 它们很容易控制,而且常常很有趣。
  • Boats are water-surface vehicles.
  • Submersibles are underwater vehicles.
