Innovative UAV Engine Solutions by RCV Engines

RCV Engines stands at the forefront of manufacturing compact multi-fuel engines tailored for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). In collaboration with Unmanned Systems Technology (UST), thay showcase their advanced capabilities in this specialized sector. Their ‘Silver’ profile emphasizes the efficiency of their combustion systems, which are designed to deliver extraordinary fuel economy, reduced emissions, and an impressive power-to-weight ratio, making them ideal for small fixed-wing UAVs, VTOL multi-rotor UASs, and hybrid power generation applications.

Versatile Engine Performance

The UAV engines produced by RCV are designed for easy calibration and maintain consistent performance across various environmental conditions. They can operate on gasoline, heavy fuels such as Jet-A1, JP5, and JP8, as well as diesel under specific conditions.

DF70 Twin Cylinder UAV Engine

Among their offerings, the DF70 Twin Cylinder UAV Engine stands out as a 70 cc multi-fuel 4-stroke engine crafted to meet military specifications for the aerospace industry. This engine is versatile enough for both VTOL and fixed-wing unmanned aircraft, boasting remarkable fuel efficiency, quiet operation, and reliable starting capabilities. Its boxer configuration minimizes vibration, and it can be configured for either pusher or tractor setups. Additionally,a “limp home” mode allows operation on a single cylinder if necessary.

DF35 Single Cylinder UAV Engine

For smaller unmanned aircraft, RCV also provides the DF35 Single Cylinder UAV Engine, which has a capacity of 35cc and delivers a power output of 2.2kW.This engine is designed with a compact footprint, making it an excellent replacement for existing 2-stroke engines, while enhancing reliability, quality, and multi-fuel functionality.

Custom Engine Development Services

RCV Engines extends its expertise through a custom engine design, development, and manufacturing service, catering to specific engine requirements. Their skilled engineers collaborate with clients’ development teams or can deliver a comprehensive custom solution that includes requirements assessment, prototyping, and production supply. Engines can be produced by RCV or licensed for manufacturing by the customer, with 3D CAD data available for installation studies.
