Research abstract
Rogue Approach has developed a lightweight, hybrid powertrain for use on a Group 2 UAV or as a standalone, portable electric generator. When our powertrain is used as a UAV powertrain, flight times can be increased by up to 4x (e.g., two hours). The same powertrain can be used as a standalone, portable electric generator for remote locations or during natural disasters.
