The most important characteristic of any unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) is the autonomy of operation. UAVs structures containing an internal combustion engine as an energy source usually use packaged units of general-purpose. The article proposes a modification of such engines, which allows improving fuel efficiency, reducing noise and exhausting temperature.
