Didn't see any mention on how it will be powered, are batteries even feasable?

I thought just keeping rovers warm enough to operate was quite energy consuming.

It looks like it's only going to do one brief flight, so yes, batteries probably are feasible. I'm not sure if it would require more power or less power than on Earth though since gravity is lower but so is air density for the blades to act on.
