Yeah, but I bet he accelerates faster.
Edit: he accelerates from standstill at 9.5 m/s^2. I couldn't find data on what drones do.

Drones usually accelerate quite rapidly (electric motors and all).

Well electric motors can accelerate rapidly, but if they're pulling something heavy, all you'll get is rapidly spinning electric motors and a slowly rising object.

Still, that's zero to 95% of top speed in one second (or 5 meters).
