The 3W 28i engine is supplied together with UAV Factory’s proprietary 80W onboard generator system. The generator system is factory installed on the 3W 28i engine and tested before delivery.
The two-stroke 3W 28i engine is a proven choice for unmanned aircraft vehicles due to excellent power-to-weight ratio and reliability. The 28i engine is available in both pusher and tractor versions. It is also possible to order 3W 28 CS engine, which offers higher power output.
The 3W 28i engine and generator system is often used for unmanned aircraft vehicles with the takeoff weight of 8 to 23 kg.
The following items are included in the 3w 28i engine and generator system:
-
3W 28i (or 28 CS) engine. Pusher or tractor engine versions are available
-
Ignition unit
-
Preinstalled 80W onboard generator system
-
