It s awesome assuming your motives are.
The aircraft can potentially be used as a flying solar panel to provide emergency solar power to disaster areas as well as for photography small package delivery surveillance and.
Put solar panels on a drone so it doesn t need a battery.
Gathering tools and materials here i am going to give you links to each part and component used in this project.
The culmination of years of work here is a first peak at my solar powered airship design.
I hacked my old cheerson cs 10 quadc.
I made this drone as a research and as i simple weekend project so you can also try if you ll like it.
I also wish to eventua.
This one is intended to operate as a drone.
So far it has been flown by remote control up to an.
What i have built for 100kg cargo drone challenge by airbus was powered paraglider and it makes sense to turn powered paraglider into autonomous or rc solar paraglider qrun said.
