Domestic large solar drones, the first flight was successful in Shaanxi

The large solar drone developed by the Aviation Industry One Flying Institute was successfully flying in Yulin, Shaanxi on September 3. "Qi Xing 50" large solar drones took off at 17:50, flying for 26 minutes in the air, landing smoothly at 18:16, successfully completed the first flight task, the aircraft status was good, the systems were running normally, and the first flight was successful. The aircraft is the first oversized and low -speed drone developed by the aviation industry. For the first time, a large -scale drone with a double body layout is used. The first large -scale drone platform with solar energy as the only power energy source.

"Qi Xing 50" large solar drone is also a "pseudo satellite" that can fly continuously at high altitude. It uses high -efficiency, clean, green, and environmentally friendly solar energy. Monitoring, atmospheric environmental 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.
