A solar drone that takes hours to charge and flies only a minute at a time is barely an aircraft too. Don't get me wrong, it's a very cool tech demo and I can't wait to see the video, but IMO if your goal is to take pressure/composition measurements in the atmosphere at a variety of altitudes, a weather balloon is the right tool for the job.
