With Hydrogen Fuel Drone Able to Fly More Than One Hour

Maybe for those who love to play or hobby with drone's ability to know how long they fly. What is clear, the drone is now on average only lasts no more than 30 minutes. Even for drones with tens of millions also, can not last more than the time.

To get around this, many carried out by the drone users, such as making modifications on the drones that can accommodate two batteries at once. However, this is fairly ineffective because the load drones are increased, so that the power needed to lift the drones be also increased.

But all that will be answered by a newly developed technology by Intelligent Energy. Reporting from The Verge, Thursday (12/17/2015), said that the company has just announced that they have developed a hydrogen fuel for the drone.

Certainly nothing special about hydrogen fuel technology for this drone. Yes, they claim that by using hydrogen fuel, a drone capable of flying more than an hour. By using several light weight battery cells and injecting hydrogen battery, the company managed to create an efficient fuel for drones. Moreover, hydrogen in the battery can be charged using compressed hydrogen, so it only takes a few minutes to replenish the battery power on.

Julian Hughes as Director of Business Development of Intelligent Energy said that the drone is an amazing new technology. Especially if used for commercial purposes, the drones with the ability to light up no more than 30 minutes are not very efficient. Therefore, it is expected the presence of hydrogen fuel technology for this drone, able to overcome this problem on the length of the drone fly.

Hopefully, this hydrogen fuel technology soon developed further. So for drone pilots can fly longer without having to worry about running out of power.
