Seems like it's quite doable even with standard equipment. I follow an FPV (first person viewer) youtuber and he did quite a good series on his Everest trek. Did not go higher than base camp, though. Here it is: https://m.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL5Y2yyiC4P5QZLGC7SJcKwCz5qG-ikc5X#bottom-sheet https://m.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL5Y2yyiC4P5QZLGC7SJcKwC... ---- On another note, the Mars Helicopter drone worked just as well. It just had to ramp up to crazy rpm. I guess it's all about energy. 1m at sea level is about the same energy as 1m at Everest height. Drones can accelerate a lot so I guess 3x higher rpm (atm density is a third of sea level) is no problem.
