It simply takes a lot more energy to keep an aircraft aloft than it does to propel a vehicle along a road, and every additional pound of battery weight takes a steep toll on an e-aircraft’s range and/or payload. Key innovations include foldable wing tips and battery packs that can be incorporated into the wings (as fuel tanks are today).
