The invention relates to an electrically-driven nose wheel steering device for an unmanned aerial vehicle. The electrically-driven nose wheel steering device comprises a steering drive actuator, a steering torque arm, a link assembly and a drum assembly, wherein a motor in the steering drive actuator drives an output shaft to rotate through a transmission mechanism; the steering torque arm rotates along with the output shaft, the steering torque arm is connected to the link assembly through a knuckle bearing, and the link assembly drives the drum assembly to rotate; and the drum assembly is connected with an upper torque arm of an undercarriage torque arm, and drives nose wheels to steer through the undercarriage torque arm. The electrically-driven nose wheel steering device disclosed by the invention is driven by the motor, has the advantages of being light in weight, high in reliability and maintainability, and the like, as well as is more applicable to undercarriage systems of small and medium-sized unmanned aerial vehicles. The electrically-driven nose wheel steering device disclosed by the invention is obtained through an improvement on the basis of the existing undercarriage structure, and an undercarriage does not need to be re-designed, thus avoiding the high cost brought by the re-designing.
