I'm trying to design an aircraft with long range, and I thought that an electric aircraft with generation would be able to do that. However, I've seen very few of these commercially, and I was wondering why. Is a fully electric aircraft too expensive/ not powerful enough to be feasible, economically or physically? Also, is there possibly a way to generate enough power? An alternator/Magneto combination, perhaps?
Can an electric aircraft self-recharge?
