Fuel cells
Up one levelTouted as the technology of the future, fuel cell development is rapid. In theory, fuel cells offer us fast recharging/refueling for all-day flying. I think that it will be a while before we see fuel cells with the required size, power density and efficiency to be usable in our sport.
