UAV Sci-Tech UAVs are Chinese UAVs developed by Beijing UAV Sci-Tech Co., Ltd. (UAV Sci-Tech, 北京国遥星图航空科技有限公司), and these UAVs include both fixed-wing and rotary-wing UAVs.
Delta-wing UAV[]
Delta wing UAV is a fixed-wing micro air vehicle (MAV) developed by UAV Sci-Tech, and it does not have any vertical rudder. Propulsion is provided by a two-blade propeller driven by a pusher engine mounted at the empennage, and the UAV is usually launched via catapult. This MAV can either be gasoline or electrically powered, and is constructed of carbon fiber and fiber glass. Specification:[1]
- Length (m): 1

- Max take-off weight (kg): 7.5
- Remote control radius (km): 30
- Max speed (km/hr): 120
- Cruise speed (km/hr): 72
- Launch: catapult
- Recovery: parachute

Telemetry IV[]
Telemetry IV UAV is a twin engine Chinese UAV developed Titan with a twin-boom layout. What is unusual about Titan III UAV is that the two engines are not mounted on the booms for the typical twin boom configuration, but instead, both engines are mounted on the fuselage, a tractor engine in the nose, and a pusher engine at the end. Both engines are equipped with two-blade propeller. This layout of Titan III is identical to that of three other Chinese UAVs: Oriental Titan Titan III, Hunter and ZWYX YX-3. Specification:[7]
