Chapter 195 (2/2)
However, the mentality of the teams of several other companies is not so balanced at this time, especially the teams that are conducting the test flight of large eight rotor UAV. After all, in their company, the company's technology and capital are very good, so they also want to carry out the R & D and sales of real manned aircraft.
However, although their company has repeatedly submitted its intention to develop manned aircraft to its superiors, it has not obtained official approval, but the Kunlun company now entering the site has obtained official approval.
In fact, this is also their most unbalanced place, but they don't think about it. The application they submitted is just an intention. In a bad word, it is just a plan.
Before that, they had no experience in manned aircraft manufacturing except that they had a certain technical accumulation in the UAV field. The official may approve their application!
Of course, they can also start research and development in this area first, wait until their helicopter is formed, at least wait until their helicopter design drawings come out, and then apply. Maybe it is more likely to pass.
However, unlike Kunlun company and Tiangong technology, although they have certain funds, they want to really develop and design a manned aircraft without the support of official funds. It's just a fool's dream. Without this fund, they can't even achieve it in terms of technology.
Wang Bin naturally didn't know what these teams thought. After the UAV of Tiangong technology was unloaded, he was equal to Yu Ping and began to assemble various modules of the UAV. It only took less than ten minutes for them to install the wings and other modules of the UAV.
When Wang Bin successfully installed the last module of the UAV, that is, the battery module, into the battery compartment and installed the glass skin, the whole UAV finally came into line and quietly stopped on the runway 3, waiting for takeoff.
Of course, the last battery module installed by Wang Bin is the second-generation superconducting battery module manufactured by Wang Bin himself. Although this superconducting battery module is not very large, that is, a single 100 mm multiplied by 100 mm battery, the power in the battery is as high as 500 kilowatts, that is, 500 kwh.
Of course, the main purpose of this battery is to provide energy for various electrical equipment on the UAV, such as steering communication. However, if it only provides energy for these equipment, it is natural not to use such a large capacity battery, or even ordinary battery is enough.
However, in addition to providing energy for these devices, this battery also undertakes the task of providing power energy for UAVs in an emergency or after the aircraft runs out of fuel, so it naturally needs sufficient capacity.
However, if the aircraft is driven by electricity in case of emergency or fuel depletion, its flight speed can not reach the speed above supersonic speed, and can only reach the level of no more than 400 kilometers per hour at most.
At the same time, if only electricity is used as energy, its range and load capacity will be greatly reduced. A 500 kW battery can only support the UAV for a distance of 500 or 600 kilometers at most, but this is enough for this UAV. After all, this is not an electric UAV, But a UAV that uses a fuel engine as the main power.
