I watched the video and didn't notice the goal of videoing 24 hour sun.  It looked like he went to climb/name a mountain.

Moreover, rumor is Iran sells the Shahed-136 drone for about $20,000.  The drone has a range of 1,200 to 1,500 miles.  The drones are configured from the factory as one-way.  I don't know if they come armed but may be a lot cheaper stripped down.  These drones fly at about 115 mph.

The distance from Barrow, Alaska to the North Pole is roughly 1,300 mi.  That should be 10+ hours of video.  Again, one-way drones.      

Within a few more years it may be possible for one of us to purchase/release a drone from Barrow @ midnight, fly it over the North Pole having it send video back while on the journey.

The 50K barrier to release two drones.
