Sadly they're only talking about a glider this time around, but it seems to have promise.

This is a normal post Be curious to know how they solved the problem of mars air density providing little lift.

This is a normal post Bigger wings, lighter plane. Easy.
In fact in the article it says they're testing a test version at 30,000ft to see how it flies in low-density air.

This is a normal post Why a heavier than air?
only 10% or air pressure...
A hydrogen balloon would seem better or am I stupid?

This is a normal post 10% air pressure is the key
That means you need a much larger balloon to achieve the same amount of lift.
