  Achieving cyber-physical control over a wireless channel requires satisfying
both the timeliness of a single packet and preserving the latency reliability
across several consecutive packets. To satisfy those requirements as an
ubiquitous service requires big infrastructural developments, or flexible
on-demand equipment such as UAVs. To avoid the upfront cost in terms of finance
and energy, this paper analyzes the capability of UAV access points (UAVAPs) to
satisfy the requirements for cyber-physical traffic. To investigate this, we
perform a Gilbert-Eliott burst-error analysis that is analytically derived as a
combination of two separate latency measurement campaigns and provide an
upper-bound analysis of the UAVAP system. The analysis is centered around a
UAVAP that uses its LTE connection to reach the backhaul, while providing
service to ground nodes (GNs) with a Wi-Fi access point (AP). Thus, we combine
both measurement campaigns to analyze the plausibility of the described setup
in casual, crowded or mixed network settings.
