I crashed and broke my VTOL airplane twice last weekend. Sighs dramatically. Pilot error.
More seriously, there's a couple main issues: piloting, and recharging.
You'd want the drone to not crash into anything, and remote controlling the drone with Internet-induced lag would be especially challenging. There's a reason why FPV setups for race drones use analog video still.
Also, just as with making a household wheeled security robot, you can do that right now, but the automatic return to the charging base is not widely available as a commercial product.
