unmanned aerial drone aloft due to high energy density in battery

Energy Density in Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS)

UAS need power to fly and to perform other operations like using cameras or radar. If a UAS needs to be continually brought down to refuel or recharge due to low energy density, it is not being used to its full capabilities.
