If you want to look at mounting solar panels onto drones in general, it would be best to look at fixed wing drones . These drones are very efficient due to the winged design, which allows the drone to glide through the air and only requires minimal energy to move forward. An affordable fixed wing drone such as the X8 Long Range drone would be best, and the large area of the wings allows you to cover it with many solar panels.
