The present invention relates to a solar panel cleaning apparatus using an unmanned aerial vehicle. The solar panel cleaning apparatus using an unmanned aerial vehicle, according to the present invention, comprises: a cleaning unit with a cleaning pad; an unmanned aerial vehicle which flies without a person to move the cleaning unit to a location where a solar panel is installed and moves the cleaning unit on the solar panel; a connection arm which has at least one driving joint unit and connects the unmanned aerial vehicle to the cleaning unit; a sensing unit which senses a distance between the unmanned aerial vehicle and the solar panel; and a control unit which controls the driving joint unit of the connection arm based on measurement data of a first sensing unit in order to make the cleaning pad in contact with the solar panel at a flight location of the unmanned aerial vehicle. According to the present invention, the cleaning apparatus applies constant force on a cleaning target surface to improve cleaning effects.
