Solar Power Can Substantially Prolong Maximum Achievable Airtime of Quadcopter Drones
Abstract Sunlight energy is potentially excellent for small drones, which can often operate during daylight hours and fly high enough to avoid cloud blockade. However, the best solar cells provide limited power, compared to conventional power sources, making their use for aerial vehicles difficult t...
