DESAIN DAN PENGEMBANGAN UAV FIXED WING MENGGUNAKAN SUMBER DAYA HYBRID SOLAR CELL DAN BATERAI

- UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) is an unmanned flying vehicle technology developed and used to help human’s work in many aspects such as for mapping system, logistics, defence and security and other sectors. UAV is inseparable from battery usage as a power source with long-period usage purposes. Which means UAV’s flight time influences the power source needed. The long flight time will need a bigger power source. The increasing demand for power will need an additional power source for the UAV which in this case has chosen solar cell as a solution to the problem. A fixed-wing UAV is chosen as it aligns with solar cells’ thin shape which can be taped to the UAV’s wings. The purpose of this research is to apply the design of the fixed wing which can take flight with the usage of solar cell as an additional power source to increase its flight time. Research result shows the PWM value required to fly the fixed wing is 1730 with a flight time for 789 seconds or 13 minutes and 9 seconds.
