At some point it will be a drone battle field up there. I look at that image and wonder what the red arm is for. It's carrying a bit payload. The camera and 2 batteries. Maybe 15 minutes fly time. Less payload more fly time but less capability. I don't get the SLR camera. Seems a bit of overkill. Must be a good reason.

They can clearly travel large distances and go high enough that you cannot see them. We have seen them at some demonstrations. It might find a use scanning a larger property or going out to scope something suspicious. Perhaps doing a recce.
