On September 3rd, the cover reporter learned from China Aviation Industry Group that the "Qixing 50" large solar drone developed by the Aviation Industry First Flying Institute was successful in Yulin, Shaanxi. "Qi Xing 50" large solar drone took off at 17:50, flying for 26 minutes in the air, landed smoothly at 18:16 that day, successfully completed the first flight task, the aircraft status was good, the systems were running normally, and the first flight was successful successful. Essence

"Qi Xing" large solar drone is an important achievement of the innovation of aviation industry scientific and technological innovation. It is an important measure for the aviation industry to practice "green aviation" and "dual carbon target". reflect.

It is understood that the aircraft is the first large -scale drone developed by a high -altitude and low speed of the aviation industry. For the first time, a large -scale drone with a double body layout is used. platform. This machine is a "pseudo satellite" that can fly continuously at high altitude. It uses high -efficiency, clean, green, and environmentally friendly solar energy to leave air for a long time to perform high -altitude reconnaissance, forest fire monitoring, atmospheric environment monitoring, geographical surveying and mapping , Communication relay and other tasks.

The success of this first flight laid a solid foundation for the development of large solar drones and modeling projects for the aviation industry. It will further promote the development of key technologies such as the field of new energy, the field of composite materials, and the field of flight control. The ability to perform tasks in the sea.
