Idea behind this project is to have power tether that would give power
from the ground, so drone would stay in the sky 24/7 if needed.

On "regular" MeshPoint we have three radios and we use three different channels.

But because our current drone can carry payload up to 1kg we used only
one radio in for MeshPoint Air drone, and also we don't need hundreds
of clients connected on the drone, we would do that part on the
ground. Drone is used mostly for setting up point to point long range
wifi or lte links.

Cheers,
Valent.
