I think it's most common in maps with varied terrain.

Try this: Crouch and look up before deploying. This seems to work 99/100.

But yes, it's very annoying.

Hmmm. This happened to me once the other day.

Odd thing is, I was on top of a building on Camp G. Never happened before, never happened since.

I think them killing you is deliberate, so it can't be exploited (like the Karkand Hotel Glitch)

It happened to me a couple times, but both time when I had overhead cover.  I think that if it cannot deploy above your head, the deployment placement moves down and ends up being IN your head; insta death.  Once I started making sure I was in the open (i.e. no roof right over my head) I was doing great.  Just watch those tunnels and overhangs, folks.

The drones are like retarded flying R2-D2's
only reason I would unlock them is for fun or for that Reducing Spawn Time Beacon thingy

This is the best explanation. Enough said.
