Any size someone cares to make them, IMO. Using the Body rating to get a
rough weight for the drone (use the middle between the lowest and highest
weights for that Body rating) will give a good indication to what kind of
size a drone would be. For best results, though, you probably would want
to take one size smaller -- this because non-drone vehicles have lots of
"empty" space for the passengers, which drones don't need.
A drone with a Body of 4 weighs roughly the same as a family car, so it
would probably be the same size as a small car. OTOH, a drone with Body 1
will more likely have the size of a remote-controlled toy.
