I think the project difficulty grows at least 10x with all the dust, insects wind, pollen in the air and whatnot even assuming you hide it for bad weather and you have secured very stable mount points. It sure would be cool though.

The more I think about, I wonder if a small tethered ground robot paired with an overwatch camera would be better. Cable management could still be in the air but since it's just power delivery, it doesn't need the tension.

It would be interesting if you could just have all the motors hidden on the sides and have even the "cut" functionality driven by a cable getting pulled.

Some 12ft T-post, shelter for it to park, update weak points were dust & water can intrude. I think it's doable.
