Abstract
In this study, the development of a kit-form quadcopter is described. This suggests that Altrium build software was used to build the transmitter and receiver circuitry and that the enclosure was produced locally. The renovation was required as a result of the frequent cult fights and bloody incidents that have become a problem on the Cross River University of Technology campus in Calabar. Using the quadcopter, a few images of students and a few hotspot locations were captured for this project. This quadcopter's components included a tiny F450 constructed of glass fiber, four Hubson x4 brushed DC motors with Walkera Ladybird propellers, an electronic speed control (ESC), a nano nRF24L01 module, an inertial measurement unit (IMU) MPU 6050, a LiPO battery, and an Atmega 328. The data collected from testing the UAV was simulated using MATLAB. These findings are fairly comparable to work that was done at the Lovely Professional University in Phagwara, Punjab, India's School of Electronics and Communication. In their research, a quadcopter was created with the express intent of obtaining information regarding atmospheric carbon dioxide. Our quadcopter's flight time was only about three quarters of an hour, and it could only reach a vertical height of about 150 meters, whereas theirs had a GPS module, could properly stabilize itself, could pinpoint its location thanks to its GPS module, could reach a vertical height of over 700 meters, and had a flight time of about 4 hours.
