RT1200
The RT1200 quad-rotor rotary engine offers exceptional power density in a compact 1.2 L displacement package. Designed for high performance, it delivers rich torque, liquid cooling and streamlined integration for advanced aerospace and UAS platforms.
With up to 200 hp peak output and 150 hp continuous capability, the RT1200-P supports demanding missions. Its lightweight design and modular integration flexibility make it suited for heavy-duty VTOL, UAS and prototype propulsion solutions.
The RT1200’s quad-rotor Wankel architecture minimises reciprocating mass and vibration while producing an expansive power curve. Combined with liquid cooling, electronic fuel injection and refined rotor dynamics, it delivers class-leading power-to-weight, smooth performance and extended operational durability for endurance and high-payload use-cases.
Maximum Output Design: Quad-rotor rotary configuration enables peak 200 hp power delivery and formidable torque across the rpm band.
Optimised Thermal & Mechanical Efficiency: Liquid-cooling and minimal vibration architecture reduce component stress, enhance endurance and support sustained high-load operation.
Optimised Form-Factor: Compact layout and flexible mount/drivetrain compatibility allow installation in tight envelope UAS, VTOL, or manned light-aircraft systems.
Fan-drive system range.
High-Power Quad-Rotor Propulsion Engine for Heavy-Duty UAV and VTOL Platforms
The RT1200‑P uses an advanced quad-rotor rotary configuration to deliver exceptional power density and smooth performance in a compact package.
