displaying a video image captured by the aerial vehicle and obtained in real time in a main displaying interface of the terminal; and

displaying the preset map and presenting the relative position relationship of the aerial vehicle, the terminal and the return target point in a picture-in-picture displaying interface provided on the main displaying interface.

10. The method of claim 2 , further comprising:

detecting a moving distance of the terminal from a first location to a second location, resetting a position of the return target point to obtain updated third position information, when the detected moving distance is greater than a preset distance threshold; and

displaying the return target point on the preset map where the relative position relationship of the aerial vehicle and the terminal has been shown, according to the updated third position information.

11. The method of claim 2 , further comprising:

detecting a distance of the aerial vehicle from the return target point; and

limiting a flight of the aerial vehicle, or resetting the return target point, or issuing a prompt of going beyond a distance limitation, when the detected distance value is greater than a preset return distance threshold.

12. The method of claim 1 , wherein presenting the relative position relationship on the preset map includes:

determining a relative distance between the aerial vehicle and the terminal;

determining, according to the relative distance, a zoom level for completely displaying the relative position relationship; and

presenting the relative position relationship on the preset map according to the first position information, the second position information, and the determined zoom level.

13. A terminal for controlling an aerial vehicle, comprising:

a memory; and

at least one processor, coupled to the memory to execute computer-readable instructions stored on the memory to:

obtain first position information of the aerial vehicle and second position information of the terminal; and

present a relative position relationship between the aerial vehicle and the terminal on a preset map according to the first position information and the second position information;

obtain first orientation information of the aerial vehicle and second orientation information of the terminal; and

display the preset map in a displaying interface aligned with a reference direction, the reference direction being dynamically determined based on at least one of the first orientation information or the second orientation information.

14. The terminal of claim 13 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:

draw a first icon corresponding to the aerial vehicle on the preset map according to the first position information;

draw a second icon corresponding to the terminal on the preset map according to the second position information;

draw a third icon corresponding to a return target point for the aerial vehicle on the preset map according to third position information of the return target point; and

display the preset map drawn with the first icon, the second icon and the third icon.

15. The terminal of claim 14 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:

display an orientation of the aerial vehicle on the preset map according to the first orientation information; and

display an orientation of the terminal on the preset map according to the second orientation information.

16. The terminal of claim 15 , wherein:

the first icon and the second icon are icons with direction indication, and

the at least one processor is further configured to:

adjust a pointing direction of the first icon according to the first orientation information; and

adjust a pointing direction of the second icon according to the second orientation information.
