Not sure why you'd use drones rather than just tiny remote controlled model airplanes.

Multicopters are mechanically simpler and capable of hovering. Kind of a win-win. The drawback is that the fixed wing plane may have longer endurance with a battery of a given size than a multicopter would, but if your communication range is limited for some reason, then this may not be relevant.
