Abstract :
This paper is about the development of control test mock-up for the radio range testing of unmanned disaster relief helicopter. The research is part of project to convert an hobby helicopter into disaster relief helicopter. Theme is to develop a ground test bench with all the servo motors and receiver circuitry and monitor the movement of servo motors in degrees with the distance to check the control. Radio control of helicopter is monitored by change in servo motors angles. Proposed test system is tested for JR transceiver module to check the validity.
