They are often seen flying around in various sections of SkyTown. It may be hard for Samus to successfully scan one, as their flight altitude in relation to her is quite high. The drones can be shot down, and downed drones often provide supplies from the containers they carry. Because of their role, they do not possess a threat to Samus in any way. They are the Elysian counterpart of the Pirate Cargo Drone.
