Solar-powered aircraft, driven by electric motor, has vertical and horizontal wings. Design allows aircraft to fly straight path while banked, permitting optimal exposure of its wing-mounted solar cells to Sun. Such aircraft would fly at altitude high enough to be above clouds and to avoid winds with velocities much greater than its own airspeed. Its most likely application would be as pilotless aircraft to take advantage of its ability to remain aloft for long periods (for very long flights).
