The way drone pilots these days fly around so skillfully makes me wonder if there’s any black market for a sort of corporate espionage program where a pilot can sneak in to a factory through some small gap, quickly fly around gathering footage and as much sensitive details as possible, and then escape back out, before anyone has a chance to even do anything or maybe even realize what has happened.

It's far easier to have people with impressive resumes interview at the victim organization and directly ask questions. Fishing for information isn't difficult "I designed the Foo process and know to work around the disadvantages, and can apply that knowledge here", "Oh, we don't do that here, we have Bar, which is superior..."
FPV drones are incredibly loud and dissonant, especially in an enclosed space. You'd have to have a lot of very consistent and loud background noise for this to go unnoticed.
