Fuel Cell Power for UAVs
IE-Soar™ 800W
Lightweight fuel cell power module for UAVs and other portable applications

IE-Soar™ 800W provides a unique solution to extend flight times of UAVs presently constrained by the limitations of batteries. Flight durations of over three times that provided by batteries have been achieved and fuel cells provide a natural solution for manufacturers moving to larger UAVs and heavier payloads. The air cooled fuel cell systems run on hydrogen and ambient air to produce clean DC power in a simple, cost effective, robust and lightweight package. They have a higher energy to mass ratio than battery based systems and can be refuelled in a few minutes.
