    The e-Genius follows a line of airplanes with alternative propulsion systems, which have been developed at the Institute of Aircraft Design under the leadership of Professor Rudolf Voit-Nitschmann: the solar-motor glider Icaré II (1996) and the predecessor of the e-Genius, the motor glider with a fuel cell propulsion system – Hydrogenius (2006).

  7. Distributed propulsion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distributed_propulsion

    In aeronautics, Distributed propulsion is an arrangement in which the propulsive and related air flows are distributed over the aerodynamic surfaces of an aircraft. The purpose is to improve the craft's aerodynamic, propulsive and/or structural efficiency over an equivalent conventional design.

    Test flights involving powered aircraft, particularly rocket-powered aircraft, may be referred to as drop launches due to the launch of the aircraft's rockets after release from its carrier aircraft. Dual mode propulsion rocket – Dual mode propulsion systems combine the high efficiency of bipropellant rockets with the reliability and ...
