The US Air Force has research documented about making fabric capacitors - building them into the frame of the aircraft - to help power high energy draw devices. These capacitors could be (in future versions) lighter-weight alternatives to the batteries. - Anthony Mon, 15 Dec 2008 09:43:23 +0100 http://www.ecogeek.org/automobiles/2353#comment-22018 [quote][/quote][img][/img][url][/url] ;) :) ;D[b][/b] - murad Sun, 14 Dec 2008 12:43:04 +0100 http://www.ecogeek.org/automobiles/2353#comment-21972 You'd probably get a little longer than 90 minutes with some solar panels on the top. Every little bit helps. - Freeflydude Fri, 12 Dec 2008 15:37:15 +0100 http://www.ecogeek.org/automobiles/2353#comment-21626 HOLA SOY EL COLOMBIANO QUE DISEÑO EL SISTEMA DE RETARDO DE DESCARGA DE LAS BATERIAS Y HASI LOGRE ARMAR UN KITS-UCROS Y DARLE AUTONOMIA POR 5 AÑOS Y EN ESE TIEMPO SOLO SE RENPLASAN LAS 4 UNICAS BATERIAS DE 12 VOL DC.

I seem to recall it made kind of a low purring sound. My husband can identify virtually every airplane that's ever existed, but couldn't give me even a guess when I described it to him. I looked up experimental aircraft and again couldn't find even a clue. So, I'm really happy to have a mystery probably solved, and to think that my fairly laggard area for environmental innovations (Louisville) hosted this cool thing! - Sam Sat, 06 Dec 2008 07:54:33 +0100 http://www.ecogeek.org/automobiles/2353#comment-21561 could you use your 90 minutes of airtime to gain enough distance and altitude to switch the charger on, glide down from altitude while recharging the battery to get enough power to climb up again and keep going forward.... Might be a very up & down kind of way to get where you're going but for 70 cents it wouldnt be too bad ! - bc Fri, 05 Dec 2008 03:36:01 +0100 http://www.ecogeek.org/automobiles/2353#comment-21554 How much is it? :) - Mark Kiernan Fri, 05 Dec 2008 01:47:14 +0100
