Pipistrel created a two seater electrical plane. I have contacted them and asked for some information which i have received and looked into. Here is the link that I received : https://www.pipistrel-usa.com/alpha-electro/
I've looked into the Solar Impulse, but I'm more interested in something that is only battery operated. Finding a type of battery or batteries that can sustain enough energy to power an aircraft for a full flight and be recharged after landing.
I've looked into that link and contacted them. Much appreciated! They sent me some files with all there information and it was very neat to look at. Now, I am curious if any of this could be dilated on a much bigger scale for passenger and commercial planes.
I will definitely look into that. Thank you for the information. And I guess you could say I'm looking into the environment. I've just always had a passion for aeronautical engineering and as technology progresses, I am not sure really what I want to do specifically or how I can make a...
Are you aware of any websites or files that may have any valuable information on something like the research they are doing on making batteries more efficient? To my understanding, that's why this whole "electric plane" concept contradicts itself, is because using the modern batteries we have...
After watching a video on YouTube, I recently became interested in the dynamics and physic's of why we aren't using electrical powered planes instead of burning thousands of fossil fuels every day. After doing a bit of my own research, I found the problem. When we increase the weight, we have to...
