Abstract

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) can
be classified according to their civilian and military use and performance
characteristics such as weight, distance to air, wing load, range and speed. In
this study, the types of engine used in unmanned aerial vehicles and the
advantages, disadvantages and differences between these types of engines are
mentioned. Unmanned Aerial Vehicles(UAV) are used in many different tasks and
need different engine types depending on the area they are used to perform
these tasks. Two-stroke, Turbofan, Turboprop, Piston engine, Electric and
Propeller types are different types of engines used in Unmanned Aerial
Vehicles(UAV). Piston engines and electric engines are the most commonly used
types. Unmanned Aerial Vehicles(UAV) also vary in engine size and type, as well
as aircraft sizes and weights, as in humans. Electric engines are generally
used in light and small models, while piston engines are used in heavy and
large models.
