How Solar Models work

Solar energy is a tried and tested power source that is already used around the world for numerous applications.

It works by transforming energy from daylight into a reusable form of electricity, a process known as Photovoltaic (or PV for short). The model's integrated solar panel acts as a collecting tray, helping you to catch light. The energy collected is used to directly power the model's rotor. The brighter the light, the faster the model will operate.
