We'd also like a simpler design than we have now just because we see a lot of things that can already go wrong with our current design.
Basically this

We think we have one or two 30 pointers we could handle, but we're still in beta prototyping. And as to danopia's question, yes, it could, notwithstanding the height and a few other logistics (I didn't do any power/battery calculations for 10 levels).
