Robot would monitor position and use its proppellers to maintain position. New one rotates in and one comes down for maintenance. Of course it would be a target for attack by who ever meant to do bad things Might be preferable on a colony where say mobile drill rigs set up for a month or two and then move on. this situation would be fluid and erecting permanent com towers would be contra-indicated.
