How much voltage and current does a drone require to maintain a 'steady state' altitude of 300 ft ?<br>
<br>
I'm thinking of strapping a Linksys WRT54G router's circuit board under a drone and feeding power up to it via a 200' or 300' CAT5 cable.
<br>
<br>
Could the drone draw its power off of the unused wires in a Cat5 cable and provide a stable/stationary router platform/node up about 300' in the air ?<br>
