As a person who spends a lot of time in the forest, there's a ton of impassable obstacles. Cliff faces, streams, briar patches, downed logs, etc.
The robot on the ground would spend more energy in the forest than the robot in the sky.
I think being in the sky also helps keep them from being a target for looting.
But then a target for shooting :)
