2) The electric diaphragm pump is remotely controlled to be started, the lengthened spray boom is unfolded to implement pesticide spraying operation, the rotating speed of the longitudinal axis rotor wing is changed according to a driving method of the plant protection unmanned aerial vehicle, and the unmanned aerial vehicle is remotely controlled to fly along the crop row course; after the spraying operation of the air route is finished, closing the diaphragm pump, adjusting the transverse axis rotor wing to rotate at the same direction and different speeds, enabling the unmanned aerial vehicle to move in a leaning mode, finishing the air route conversion, starting another course spraying along the crop row until controlling the unmanned aerial vehicle to finish the spraying operation of the whole operation area;
3) After the field pesticide application operation is completed, the electric diaphragm pump is remotely controlled to be closed, pesticide spraying is stopped, the lengthened spray boom is folded and retracted, the unmanned aerial vehicle is remotely controlled to slowly land, the unmanned aerial vehicle power supply is turned off, and the unmanned aerial vehicle is transported out of the operation area.
