FAQ

Frequently
Asked Questions

What is the displacement and configuration of the XT100?

The XT100 is a single-cylinder, liquid-cooled, two-stroke engine designed for compact UAV and aerospace-grade propulsion applications.

How is thermal management handled?

The engine uses a closed-loop liquid-cooling system that maintains stable operating temperatures under sustained high load, improving thermal efficiency and component longevity.

What integrated systems are included in the XT100?

It incorporates a miniature electric starter, electronic ignition module, onboard battery, and compact exhaust assembly—reducing external systems and simplifying airframe integration.

What is the expected power-to-weight ratio?

The XT100 delivers a high power density relative to its mass, enabled by two-stroke scavenging efficiency and optimised port geometry.

Does the XT100 support continuous high-RPM operation?

Yes. The engine is engineered for reliable high-RPM operation with linear power delivery, supported by reinforced internals and efficient cooling.

What fuel mixture does the XT100 require?

It operates on a precision two-stroke fuel/oil blend. Mixture ratios are selected based on mission endurance, ambient conditions, and desired lubrication characteristics.

How is vibration controlled?

The XT100 utilises precision-balanced rotating components and optimised mounting points to minimise transmitted vibration and reduce structural fatigue on lightweight airframes.

What are the electrical power requirements for startup?

The onboard miniature electric starter operates from the integrated battery, requiring no external power source for ignition or start cycles.

How is exhaust management addressed?

A compact, tuned exhaust unit is supplied as part of the engine assembly, providing stable back-pressure and reducing thermal footprint.

What is the typical maintenance cycle?

Maintenance intervals vary by operational profile; however, the simplified two-stroke architecture and integrated systems result in fewer service points and rapid field servicing.

How robust is the XT100 in harsh environments?

The sealed system design protects key components from dust, moisture, and particulate ingestion, supporting deployment in austere or maritime conditions.

Can the XT100 interface with external avionics or ECU systems?

Yes. The ignition module provides straightforward electrical interfacing for telemetry, health monitoring, or platform-level FADEC/ECU integration requirements.
