But consider that the aircraft burned no fuel and emitted zero emissions. Instead, the plane used an all-electric motor powered by a single battery. Called the e-Genius and built by engineers at ...

OK, we admit, we're a long way from a carbon-free grid—but when we have one, what's the most efficient way to use that energy to fly planes? This question is explored by an interactive tool built by a ...

Other motors suit electric scooters, motorcycles, drones, and aircraft. Most electric vehicles on the market have electric motors located between the wheels but a company named Donut Labs has just ...

FlyNano is powered by an electric motor that can reach speeds of up to 75 mph. The aircraft is still in development and the price has yet to be confirmed, but it could cost around $40,000.

When nickel-cadmium batteries were invented, the first flight with an electric motor took off ... Starting in 2015, the solar-powered aircraft spent 16 months flying around the world, except ...

The CT6000E, which is the result of a collaboration between Mallaghan and International Motors, LLC, was unveiled at Logan ...

The flying component is an electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) vehicle, which means it relies on motors and propellers ... constructing the "land-based aircraft carrier" is expected ...

The so-called “Gatling” design relies on electric motors to power the barrels resulting in a firing rate as much as 6,000 rounds per minute. It is used in a variety of rotor wing aircraft in ...
