DESIGN NAME: VSA
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Vertical Solar Aircraft
INSPIRATION: From my imagine and dream of last years
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: It is the first vertical solar aircraft which has delta wings which its speed reach to 250 to 300 KM/H. Of course the speed can be increased by changing 40KW engines to 60KW engines . For specific models of the hybrid system can be used to increase the range of the flight path .To reduce the weight of the aircraft, the fuselage is made of carbon fiber.For the aerodynamics of the aircraft's fuselage is built as an integrated form. Turn to the left or to the right in the vertical flight mode by increasing or decreasing RPM the front engines speed Along with the wings rear engin ,like a gate
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: Jf23 but solar
PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: 2 years ago but finally work with2 months ago

PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: This aircraft has 3 engines that third engine is used for vertical fly . It uses 2 front engines in order to land on runway. Front engine status will be changed to vertical and rear engine air entrance wings will be opened when it wants to fly in vertical status. It can land and take off such as a helicopter
The solar surface of the aircraft is about 140 square meters which are filled by 700 cells.
In order to reach 10 ampere hours, 70 cell packs should be set that each pack contains 10 cells.
SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: Length 12 m , wingspan 15 m ; Aircraft weighing about 400 kg. The weight is also a pilot . The maximum speed is 250-300 Km/H
Flight time: 2-2.30 hours.
It requires 15 hours and appropriate light to reach 50 % charge
