RCV Engines, a specialised manufacturer of small multi-fuel propulsion systems for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), has released a case study detailing the incorporation of the company’s DF70LC heavy fuel engine into a new unmanned helicopter designed and manufactured by Sentinel Unmanned.
The Sentinel Longreach 70 UAV is a small unmanned rotorcraft that has been designed for long-range operation in a variety of conditions, including hostile climates and terrains as well as maritime environments. Sentinel required a maximum endurance of 8 hours, a maximum payload capacity of 6kg and heavy fuel operation, and selected RCV’s DF70LC engine to build the platform around.
