Gizmag has followed closely the progress of Solar Impulse from back when it was just a dream through to it latest developments, which now include it's recent runway test.
"The runway tests are necessary and involve a certain amount of risk for the landing gear. The chances of damaging the plane are greatest during low-speed ground maneuvers. The faster the plane goes the more lift it gets from its wings, meaning that there is less load on the wheels", explained André Borschberg, co-founder and CEO of Solar Impulse.
