    On September 3, the "Daystar 50" large-scale solar-powered UAV developed by the First Flight Institute of the Aviation Industry successfully completed its first flight mission in Yulin, Shaanxi Province, the aircraft was in good condition, the systems were operating normally, and the first flight was a complete success
    .

    "Daystar 50" large-scale solar-powered UAV is the first high-altitude low-speed UAV developed by the aviation industry, the first large-scale UAV with a dual-body layout, and the first all-electric large-scale UAV platform
    with solar energy as the only power source.

    The aircraft is a vehicle that can fly continuously at high altitude, and its use of efficient, clean, green and environmentally friendly solar energy can stay in the air for a long time to perform high-altitude reconnaissance, forest fire monitoring, atmospheric environment monitoring, geographic mapping, communication relay and other tasks
    .

    The success of this first flight has laid a solid foundation for the development of large-scale solar drones in the aviation industry, which will further promote the development of key technologies in the fields of new energy, composite materials, flight control and other fields, and enhance China's ability
    to perform tasks to nearby space.
