The Meioute Long-Range Engine Drive System is a UAV engine drive system with two opposed cylinders and a two-stroke cycle. It uses diesel and RP-3/RP-5 heavy fuels, combining compression ignition and low fuel consumption with a maximum operating altitude of 7000 m.
The Meioute Long-Range Engine Drive System provides power for UAV flight with an opposed two-cylinder, two-stroke engine. It uses compression ignition for stable, reliable power delivery and operates on heavy fuels: diesel and RP-3/RP-5. Low fuel consumption helps substantially extend flight endurance. The maximum operating altitude is 7000 m, and time between overhauls (TBO) exceeds 500 hours.
