Analysis of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) Type Multicopter for Improving the Quality of Air Photography in Kulonprogo Airport

Abstract

In the world of photography is very closely related to the unmanned aerial vehicle called drones. Drones mounted camera so that the plane is pilot controlled from the mainland. Photography results were seen by the pilot after the drone aircraft landed. Drones are unmanned drones that are controlled remotely. Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV), is a flying machine that operates with remote control by the pilot. Methode for this research are preparation assembly of drone, planning altitude flying, testing on ground, camera of calibration, air capture, result of aerial photos and analysis of result aerial photos. There are two types of drones, multicopter and fixed wing. Multicopter has multi propeller while fixed wing has an airplane like shape with a wing system. Drone in this research has four propellers used for mapping of new airport candidate runway New Yogyakarta International Airport (NYIA) located in Glagah Village, Temon, Kulonprogo. This drone has a load ability of 1 kg and operational time is used approximately 20 minutes for an areas 50 to 100 hectares with a height of 1500 m above ground level. Drone multicopter in this research to see the area of prospective new airport in New Yogyakarta International Airport (NYIA) in Glagah Village, Temon District, Kulonprogo Regency.
