UAV technology is used in various fields, namely the military, to strengthen defence, surveillance, dropping logistics. In addition, UAV applications are also used in agriculture. In this study, a fixed-wing UAV will be developed as a monitoring, mapping and dropping process. Several things were carried out in the development process, namely design, manufacturing, installing electronic components, and test flights. The results showed that the vehicle could carry out the mission well. The monitoring process is carried out to review land security. Besides that, it can monitor if there is a fire in agricultural land. In the mapping process, photo data processing taken in the context of the mapping is carried out into an orthophoto map. Meanwhile, in the dropping stage, the aircraft managed to drop a payload weighing 0.5 kg with a distance of 20m from a predetermined centre point. The dropped payload is also equipped with a parachute for increased safety and reduced speed when the payload is dropped.
