This question Applies to Combat Drones, but not Sentries.

With the ability to increase optimal ranges on drones, does this increase orbit range?
I noticed that drones have an Orbit speed... but i cannot find anything on Orbit Distance.

Does optimal range control Orbit Distance?

no, only optimal range and/or tracking.

I would bet that drone speed has more to do with orbit range than drone optimal, but good question!
I'd love to help you test it, if my Vexor hadn't blown up the other day. You just need to get a buddy to shoot you with drones, turn on his omni tracking link, turn it off, and see if the drones change their orbits.
