Couldn’t a battery be swapped so that the plane wouldn’t have to wait? (I’m sure it’s tricky, but that seems like the clear solution to charging taking along time.)
- loonster 5y agoThe batteries would then need to be more easily accessible and a more standard shape. You probably couldn't have batteries in the wings. I would imagine commercial planes would take a hybrid approach. They would have their own primary batteries hidden throughout the plane, and then they would have range extender swappable batteries in the cargo area.
