Solar Solitude Official Website   

Solar Solitude is a solar powered electric radio controlled model that held an altitude record of 4210 feet, and also a world distance record with a 24.7 mile flight. Its longest flight has been 6 hour 1 minute. All of this was done with no batteries in the plane!

Nice plane, but bad luck with the flights...

Laser powered aircraft   

If you put the solar cells at the bottom, you can power an RC plane via a ground-based laser. Then you can keep it in the air for an unlimited time. Sounds like a great idea.
