Visual grounding in Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) imagery aims to localize a target object in complex bird's-eye-view scenes according to a natural language description. However, the abundance of small, densely distributed, and visually similar objects creates high visual redundancy, while repetitive local configurations give rise to strong topological ambiguity.

In this paper, we tackle the Aerial Vision-and-Dialog Navigation (AVDN) task in the training-free setting for resource-efficient high-altitude UAV navigation. Naively applying MLLMs leads to unreliable navigation due to weak directional grounding and the lack of explicit spatial memory.
