Hola amigos: A VUELO DE UN QUINDE EL BLOG., hemos recibido información de la Agencia Espacial NASA, sobre el logro que un prototipo de avión llamado : Greased Lightning or GL-10, con 10 motores eléctricos ha despegado, mas parecido a un helicóptero, pero vuela muy bien como un avión.
Greased Lightning or GL-10: se encuentra actualmente en la fase de diseño y pruebas. La idea inicial era desarrollar una envergadura de 20 pies (6,1 metros) de aeronaves impulsado por diesel híbrido / motores eléctricos, pero el equipo comenzó con versiones más pequeñas para las pruebas, construidos por prototipado rápido.

A team at NASA's Langley Research Center is developing a concept of a battery-powered plane that has 10 engines and can take off like a helicopter and fly efficiently like an aircraft. The prototype, called Greased Lightning or GL-10, is currently in the design and testing phase. The initial thought was to develop a 20-foot wingspan (6.1 meters) aircraft powered by hybrid diesel/electric engines, but the team started with smaller versions for testing, built by rapid prototyping.
During a recent spring day the engineers took the GL-10 to test its wings at a military base about two hours away from NASA Langley. The remotely piloted plane has a 10-foot wingspan (3.05 meters), eight electric motors on the wings, two electric motors on the tail and weighs a maximum of 62 pounds (28.1 kilograms) at take off. This photograph captures the GL-10 prototype taking off in hover mode like a helicopter.
