The UAV inspection method is gradually becoming popular in transmission line inspection, but it is inefficient only through real-time manual observation. Algorithms are available to achieve automatic image identification, but the detection speed is slow, and video image processing is not possible. In this paper, we propose a fast detection method for transmission line defects based on YOLO v3. The method first establishes a YOLO v3 target detection model and obtains the
