Provided are a pixel structure, a display panel and a control method thereof. The pixel structure includes four sub-pixel units, wherein the i-th sub-pixel unit includes: an i-th element to be driven and an i-th drive circuit, 1≤i≤4, and the i-th drive circuit is respectively connected with an M-th data line and an N-th scanning line, and is configured to drive the i-th element to be driven according to a data signal of the M-th data line under control of the N-th scanning line, M = { 1 , 1 ≤ i ≤ 2 2 , 3 ≤ i ≤ 4 , N = { 1 , 2 ≤ i ≤ 3 2 , i ⁢ ⁢ is ⁢ ⁢ 1 ⁢ ⁢ or ⁢ ⁢ 4 .
