An unmanned aerial vehicle, UAV, comprising a fuselage (1) with at least one rotating shaft (2) and one wing (3) positioned on said rotating shaft (2), protruding from either side of said fuselage (1). Preferably, the UAV has at least one rotor propeller (4) arranged on each rotating shaft (2), on either side of said fuselage (1), comprising one or more rotor blades (4a) and a housing (4b) which includes an actuator.The UAV is capable of shifting between a first flight mode using rotatable wings which rotate freely around the rotating shaft (2) only due to a direction and strength of wind impinging against a surface of the wings (3) and a downstream flow generated by the rotor propellers (4), and a second flight mode using fixed wings, kept in a predetermined position by means of a wing-locking mechanism, preferably a substantially horizontal position.
