Reach Power flew a quadcopter autonomously for 10 hours using an electronically steered radio-frequency power beam, with the drone leaving the beam when charged and returning when low. The September 22 demo at Virginia Tech was part of an Operational Energy-Innovation event; the drone's battery alone lasts 90 seconds.
