NWUAV Propulsion Systems builds small engines for UAV propulsion. They are adaptable to the specifications of each client.

-The original engines of the brand are based on 34 cc cylinders. They are available as two-cylinder V engines, and V4 or V6 on the basis of 34 cc cylinders.

-They are also available with carbon fiber propellers, fixed or variable pitch, on the ground or in flight.

-The cylinders have a Nikasil layer, and the pistons have two segments.

They have double ignition. Each cylinder is presumed to deliver 2 HP.

-Being HFE and complying with COTS (Commercial Off-The-Shelf) for heavy fuel operations, they are multi-fuel including Jet-A, C-10, DS-1, JP-5 and JP-8.

-Due to their accumulated experience, they serve engines from other brands such as Honda, Rotron, Zenoah, 3W or Desert Aircraft, among others.

From Appendix 10: It started its line of engines for UAV adapting those of other brands such as industrial Honda motors. Those of Compact Radial Engines (MZ-2, MZ-175, and MZ-202).

-Those from RCV, RCV-70, RCV-20 and RCV-DF35 models. The Rotron 300 and 600 in their LCR and HFE versions. The 3W models 70iB2 and 140iB4.

-Also those of Zenoah and Desert Aircraft. (See the different chapters)

-However, the most interesting engines are the own models, the NW-38 and NW-44 with HFE fuels. They have a long autonomy and are silent, and with this in addition to very high altitudes, they are ideal for military missions.

-NWUAV also starts with electric motors together with their controls and batteries.

-The propellers can be made of composites, so they offer it.

-On their website they offer two more engines (2020). The NW-88 twin-cylinder multi-fuel and the NW-500 twin-cylinder gas.
