Lately, this project of implementing solar cells into a homemade 4.68 meter glider platform has been neglected, though have considered to complete it to one's needs.
If someone is interested in purchasing this aircraft fully finished, it will combine at least 152 quantity 2 cm by 4 cm monocrystalline silicon solar cells(rated @ <18%) fully or only partially integrated into the airframe. Cost is exceptionally low since I haven't yet done much work on preparing the balsa rib covered carbon fiber spar.
- AG 24, AG 25, & AG 26 combo selection of airfoils were precisely hand crafted
- Wingspan is 184"
- Total weight of current frame state is about 180g
- 68x 1/16" balsa ribs
- Wings in 3 sections: 1x 1 meter, 2x 1.8 meter
- 3 carbon spar thicknesses
- All frame structure Epoxy cured
This would be perfect for a college project or anyone considering a almost ready to fly solar powered aircraft, which is rare to find. My location is in San Antonio, TX, and if you are interested in either buying the glider fully implemented or separate of the photovoltaic cells,
