Keep in mind the Mechanic Trick of Repair Drone, which bumps the 10% repair to 25%, which quickly ups the survivability of your little buddy. Also, there are the different uses for it, scouting out ahead with commands to retreat if fired upon, great if it has a camera. Or adding the mod that will have it go into a healing subroutine if your character falls. Mine, with the Hover Drone, at level one had an AC of 17, which is pretty decent, due to it's size of Tiny, also with it's size, it had the highest to-hit of anyone in the party, even though it was only equipped with a Pulsecaster pistol and was non-lethal (Character choice) With the right mods you can also give it a tool arm to give you an assist with repairs. Any skill it is trained in does not require direct supervision and control to perform.
