To provide a piloting mode other than the absorption piloting facilitating a user, especially a beginner user keeping control of a drone.
A user inclines an apparatus according to pitch and roll axes to produce inclination signals (θl, φl), which are transformed into corresponding command set points (θd, φd) for a drone in terms of attitude of the drone according to the pitch and roll axes of the drone. The drone and the apparatus get the relative angular orientation of the drone to the apparatus by getting the orientation of the local reference frame (XlYlZl;XbYbZb) to absolute reference frame (XNEDYNEDZNED) related to the ground, respectively. Then, the reference frame of the apparatus is re-aligned to the reference frame of the drone by the rotation that is the function of this relative angular orientation. Thus, the re-aligned value corresponds to the user command referred to in the reference frame of the apparatus, and when the user sees the drone, piloting comes to be made more intuitively.
