How does EFI work?
Each INF UAV Engine has many integrated sensors and a specially designed throttle body replacing the traditional carburettor to control fuel injection and airflow via an electronic injector valve and airflow regulating butterfly. Using RPM, Temperature, Barometric Pressure, Fuel Pressure, and various position sensors the engine tuning is electronically controlled via the EFI Engine Control Unit (ECU).
Alternator Options
Each UAV Engine can be integrated with optional alternators to power onboard avionics and Flight Control Systems (FCS). The alternators are available in 24v and 48v configurations providing 350-500W of power. Optional Starter-Alternators are also available using an alternator with the required torque to rotate the engine combustion. The INF ECU communicates with the FCS to receive control commands as well as feedback full engine status telemetry. The INF iHE7 is our dedicated UAV generator that is designed to power electric propulsion aircraft with a phenomenal 3.5KW output power.
