So we have finally completed our first test of the smart charging system with a real flight from Sandown Isle of Wight to Brighton City Airport. The goal, aside from re-positioning the aircraft, was to test the remote transaction logging of the charging sessions. After a couple of scripting tweaks, the system worked 100% as expected with the background operations.
What is different with our aviation programme is that charging sessions will always start regardless of any account status because it is imperative that the aircraft always charges and does not impede general operations.
