Load device control method, adapter apparatus, unmanned aerial vehicle, and control terminal

A control terminal comprising:

• a communication interface;
• at least one processor;
• and
• at least one memory including computer program code, wherein the at least one memory and the computer program code are configured, with the at least one processor, to cause the control terminal to at least:
• receive an applet sent by an aerial vehicle, the applet being received by the aerial vehicle from an adapter apparatus, the applet being received by the adapter apparatus from a load device connected to the aerial vehicle via the adapter apparatus, the applet being configured to control the load device, and the load device including a third-party device;
• generate and send a control command to the aerial vehicle for controlling the load device based on the applet;
• and
• load the applet into an application configured to control the aerial vehicle in the control terminal, to cause the application with the loaded applet to control the aerial vehicle and the third-party device simultaneously.

A method for controlling a control terminal, comprising:

• receiving an applet configured to control a load device, the load device being connected to an aerial vehicle through an adapter apparatus, the aerial vehicle being communication connected with the control terminal;
• in response to detecting a user control operation at the applet, generating a control command for controlling the load device;
• and
• downloading the applet from a server, and loading the applet into an application configured to control the aerial vehicle in the control terminal;
• or
• in response to the load device being in a working state, receiving the applet sent by the aerial vehicle, the applet being received by the aerial vehicle from the load device through the adapter apparatus.
