Now, fighting a fire in rugged mountain terrains or high building windows fire is difficult and dangerous for firefighters. High buildings containing floors at height, and reaching the position for deployment of external firefighting equipment and rescue operations may not be easy it takes some time, and fire will spread easily during that period. Meanwhile reaching farms located in rugged mountains, and terrains with firefighting vehicles are often impossible because of rugged road conditions and traffic. From this perspective view, to meet the need for a fast way to extinguish the fire in an area to be approached by using drone technology and to give safety for the public and firefighters. The fire extinguishing technique is detailed in this paper. The system is structured with six frames. Hexacopter (with release mechanism), Fire extinguishing ball, collision avoidance system. Hexacopter will carry a specific payload and be capable of throwing an extinguishing in an area that is chosen by the operator. This system has been implemented, constructed, and tested in a practical session. The results demonstrate the feasibility of drones in extinguishing fire in its initial stages, dropping a CO2 ball, and can fly back to firefighters for the next round.
