==UV10==
UV10 UAV was originally developed by [[Beijing]] [http://www.microfly.com.cn/ Microfly Engineering Technology Co. Ltd. (Microfly, 北京迈凯飞工程技术有限公司)] and under the agreement reached between Golden Way and Microfly, Golden Way becomes responsible of manufacturing and marketing UV10, while Microfly would concentrate on [[Microfly UAV#UV20|Microfly UV20CAM/HS/VID]] by using Golden Way’s production facility for UV10. UV10 is a fixed wing UAV in conventional layout with high [[wing configuration]] and triclycle landing gear mounted on a cylindrical fuselage with [[V-tail]]. Propulsion is provided by a two-blade propeller driven [[tractor configuration|tractor engine]] mounted in the nose. UV10 adopts modular design concept so that different engine can be adopted for different missions, such as long range of high elevation versions.<ref name="UAV">{{cite web| url=http://www.5ihangpai.com/news/gs/201.html | title=UV10 UAV | accessdate=2014 }}</ref> UV10 can either take-off conventionally by taxiing or by catapult.
