Well... almost.

Say this could not help but to post.


A Finnish research team developed a flexible, thin solar panel printed on film that can be used as wallpaper. One square meter of the film can produce up to 10.4 watts of power.

I know that 10 watts is not much when talking quads, but on something like the Kraken plane, this could be made to run the plane for a much longer time. With a little research I think quadcopters could be made more efficient, and so could this lightweight solar power. With a bigger quad you are more efficient, well this could improve that by a lot.
