A device for attaching multiple components to power lines via drone. The invention includes a clamp which is attached to a power line following activation of an included trigger. Prior to activation on the power line the clamp is firmly attached to a drone payload arm. The payload arm attaches to the front of a drone and includes a track with a plurality of clamp attach points. The track can be rotated by a microcontroller and motor to allow installation of multiple clamps and attached payloads onto power lines in a single drone flight.
