I found that On Beta 1 drones seem to be not stuck in space anymore, but got a other weird quirk.
They seem to endlessly Dock/undock From the mining ships, they get put into internal storage, come out again, lift off and before even starting to fly, directly land again back into Storage.
Have a savefile where im standing on a ship that has the drones Looping

I had the same thing going while on a Wyvern.
I also think it happened to my Cerberus while fighting some Xenon. I saw drones taking off and landing rapidly during the fight, but didn't think much of it while in the heat of battle.
After the battle, the Cerb showed 0 drones left. Thinking they were blown up, i sent the ship to a wharf. However, in the upgrade screen, all drones were present. I haven't tested in battle yet again but I wonder if something funky is going on with drones in general.

I think this might be also the case with cargo drones. I see all SCA destroyers that I'm boarding just sit for hours near the station they hacked. When I scan them their command is something like "waiting for drones".

If you think you have a related case, please provide a savegame that demonstrates it.
