The Mars surface is rugged and its environment is complex, the Mars UAVs provide a new idea for Mars exploration due to its high mobility and flexibility, and is an important paradigm for future deep space exploration.The differences between Mars and some relevant surface environmental parameters on Earth are compared, the main uses and difficulties that Mars UAVs need to be overcome are analyzed, and the importance of Mars UAV experimental platform is clarified. The technical features, functional advantages and disadvantages of the Mars UAV experimental platform developed by domestic and foreign research institutions are introduced in detail, and the need for the experimental platform to have a simulated Mars environment and measure relevant parameters is summarized. On this basis, the idea of building a Mars UAV experiment platform is proposed, the overall design ideas and thoughts are given, and the prospect of the application of the Mars aerodynamics experimental platform is made.
