Abstract
Solar-powered unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) possess a unique capability to maintain continuous flight for hours, days, weeks, or even months. This research aims to develop a solar-powered UAV that can fly at low altitudes with extended endurance to establish a new record for full-day continuous flight in Taiwan. The UAV was designed with a 4.7 m wingspan and a T-tail configuration to achieve this goal, utilizing materials and components available in the current market. The flight test was conducted on 2 June 2022, resulting in a remarkable 21 h and 50 min of flight endurance, setting a record in Taiwan. While the full-day flight endurance target was not met, the UAV demonstrates the potential to achieve greater endurance with improvements in its construction and operational aspects.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
