..my RC model power tricks are not USB-C compliant AFAIK,
they are workarounds, bypassing all the fancy new USB-C
compliant stuff, so verify your voltages, and, chk out:

..nice, might tolerate my 5.1V chain saw magneto spool then.
70 turns around the iron core, a rectifier bridge, and one
capacitor on each side of the 7805, and a 0.1V zener diode
to hike the 7805 output to 5.1V, neatly epoxied into a wee
metal box bolted onto the engine, so no idea what capacity
those 2 capacitors were, or, are now, worked fine powering
7 servos and the receiver silky smoothly in my 42 year old
noisy ass gas plane.

..yeah, and they can also be powered by the GPIO pins and
those new POE pins next to the ethernet plug. Again, verify
your voltages.

..I wouldn't be too sure we have all the drivers for the new
stuff in the rpi5, but we are able to use their rpi-specific
drivers from their site.

best case, worst case, and just in case.
