PERANCANGAN AUTOPILOT LATERAL-DIREKSIONAL PESAWAT NIRAWAK LSU-05 (THE DESIGN OF THE LATERAL-DIRECTIONAL AUTOPILOT FOR THE LSU-05 UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLE)

The autopilot on the aircraft is developed based on the mode of motion of the aircraft i.e. longitudinal and lateral-directional motion. In this paper, an autopilot is designed in lateral-directional mode for LSU-05 aircraft. The autopilot is designed at a range of aircraft operating speeds of 15 m/s, 20 m/s, 25 m/s, and 30 m/s at 1000 m altitude. Designed autopilots are Roll Attitude Hold, Heading Hold and Waypoint Following. Autopilot is designed based on linear model in the form of state-space. The controller used is a Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controller. Simulation results show the value of overshoot / undershoot does not exceed 5% and settling time is less than 30 second if given step command. Abstrak Autopilot pada pesawat dikembangkan berdasarkan pada modus gerak pesawat yaitu modus gerak longitudinal dan lateral-directional. Pada makalah ini, dirancang autopilot pada modus gerak lateral-directional untuk pesawat LSU-05. Autopilot dirancang pada range kecepatan operasi pesawat yaitu 15 m/dtk, 20 m/dtk, 25 m/dtk, dan 30 m/dtk dengan ketinggian 1000 m. Autopilot yang dirancang adalah Roll Attitude Hold, Heading Hold dan Waypoint Following. Autopilot dirancang berdasarkan model linier dalam bentuk state-space. Pengendali yang digunakan adalah pengendali Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID). Hasil simulasi menunjukan nilai overshoot/undershoot tidak melebihi 5% dan settling time kurang dari 30 detik jika diberikan perintah step.
