4-hour power: World’s 1st 62-mile-range hydrogen-powered drone soars in China | The drone weighs around 42 pounds (19kg), carries up to 13 pounds (6kg), flies for over 4 hours, and boasts industry-leading performance and design.
China's Tianmushan Laboratory has developed a revolutionary hydrogen-powered drone capable of flying 62 miles (100 kilometers).
It addresses the inherent limitations of traditional industrial drones, namely their restricted flight range and vulnerability to adverse weather. This power source, with an energy density five to six times higher than conventional lithium batteries, is the key to the drone’s extended flight endurance. “It has been demonstrated and applied in many scenarios such as oil and gas exploration, power inspection, emergency rescue, forest protection, and water conservancy monitoring,” concluded the lab.
