Abstract
This work is developed and integrates the basic system required to present on board of an UAV. The basic systems included servo actuation system, RC flight control system, on-board power system and wiring system. Regarding to this title, the task was carried out with the separate approach at the beginning and thus being integrated at the final. Servo actuation system is developed by determined the required hinge moment from AAA program. The servos are selected in accordance with the torque rating and compromise between technical factor and cost. It also contained sizing criteria of push rod based on the exerted force. Next, the operation theory of flight control system using RC has been discussed. There must be a battery in order to execute the control system. This task was accomplished by create the on-board electrical power budget and hence the selection of suitable battery pack from the market. Consequently, wiring system is
established to interconnect all the system components. Switching mechanism is being focus in this section. Integration of the above mentioned system is shown in appropriate diagram and drawing.
