The drone control device is an item in the Fallout 3 add-on Mothership Zeta.

Characteristics[]

With the drone control device, the player is able to activate drones (contained in drone pods) found anywhere in the Mothership. The player may have a maximum of one drone follower at a time: a support drone or a guardian drone.

The device will also deactivate any active hostile drones in the area once any nearby aliens are killed (thus leaving no preprogrammed allies for the drones to defend). They will not reactivate even if any aliens show up from another area, but they will not fight for the player either. However, leading the drones away from the aliens will not cause them to deactivate.
