Implementation of Hand Tractor Control Device Remotely Using Flysky Fs-I6 Remote Control

– Hand tractors are agricultural tools used to minimize the use of human labor, so as to increase the effectiveness and efficiency of the process of plowing rice fields. The use of hand tractors for cultivating agricultural land still causes several problems such as work fatigue and ergonomic problems for operators which can result in accidents while working. From this problem the author had the idea to build a tool that could be installed on a hand tractor so that the hand tractor could be controlled remotely using a remote control. In the hardware section, the main control uses an atmega328 microcontroller on the Arduino nano board, a Flysky FS-i6 remote control as input for sending remote commands, a servo motor as an output for the gas mechanical drive on the tractor, a power window that pulls the tractor clutch to turn right and left, the panel solar for battery charging. Based on the results of tool testing, tool performance testing was carried out at a distance of 1 to 100 meters. At this distance, the tool worked well and no errors occurred. The area of one rice field ranges from 10 x 10 meters to 50 x 50 meters, so that remote hand tractor control equipment can be used and there will be no errors even over long distances. This shows that this tool has been successful and the tractor can be controlled remotely.
