RCV Engines specializes in the production of small multi-fuel engines designed for unmanned systems.
The DF70 is a high-performance 4-stroke twin-cylinder UAV engine designed to military specifications for the aerospace market. It was tested on synthetic fuels with the British RAF and considering that there were no alterations made to the engine they performed to an impressive standard.
It is the rotating valve, which is RCV’s patented design that enables the engine to burn fuel very cleanly, and allows its advanced duration on missions.
Suitable for both VTOL and fixed-wing unmanned aircraft, the engine offers superior fuel economy, quiet running and excellent starting reliability.
With a capacity of 70cc and a power output of 4.2kW, the DF70 also features a boxer configuration for minimal vibration, as well as rotation options for either pusher or tractor configurations. A “limp home” mode offers the ability to run the engine on just one cylinder.
