The aircraft is named Air Strato and is part of a larger UAV family that will carry out various missions for ARCA (Romanian developer) and their partners. - See more at: http://www.unmannedsystemstechnology.com/2014/02/arca-develops-high-performance-uav-for-stratospheric-flights/#.dpuf The real one is electric and solar powered, yet this one has the most efficient prop system I could put together. It's slow yet very steady and should have incredible endurance much like the real thing.
