A method and apparatus for autonomous rapid shut-down of a power conditioner. In one embodiment, the method comprises determining an amount of active and reactive current generated by a power conditioner; determining whether the amount of active and reactive current satisfies an open circuit threshold; and initiating, when the amount of active and reactive current satisfies the open circuit threshold, deactivation of the power conditioner.

A motor control device includes: a step-down device including a DC-output power conversion device having a first mode for outputting first voltage and a second mode for outputting second voltage lower than the first voltage; a power supply device; and a control device, and controls a motor. When a flying object takes off, the control device controls the power conversion device in the first mode. When the control device judges that flight information which is one or both of information of a motor parameter obtained along with control for the motor and information of an environmental factor relevant to the flight altitude of satisfies a predetermined condition, or when the control device has received an mode signal for which the second mode is selected on the basis of the flight information during control for the motor, the control device controls the power conversion device in the second mode.

A power conversion apparatus includes a filter capacitor to be charged with electric power fed from a main power source, and a power converter to convert electric power fed via the filter capacitor and feed the converted electric power to a load.
