I have an idea. If you attach some drones to a solar panel ( the big ones ) and use it to power the drones, can it fly forever? (Without weather) (With (not charged) extra batteries connected to the solar panel as input, drones as output)

    $\begingroup$ The question is a little bit unclear at the moment. By "drone" are you talking about quadcopters, or just an unmanned aierial vehicle like a small fixed-wing aircraft? $\endgroup$

Yes (sort of), but probably not the way you think.

The Airbus Zephyr, flies on solar, unmanned. Current record is 64 days and several thousand miles.

But with a wingspan (of the 8/S model) of 82 feet, it is the size of an airliner
