It just seems stupid. He obviously can remotely control it, so why be putting himself in danger when he can’t even handle himself in the battlefield?

Before he upgraded his meat suit the team believed he was simply a Sentient Robot. Upon his upgrade he decided to reveal the truth about himself to the team. The only way he can try to rebuild that trust is to put himself on the field with his teammates. If he continued to just sit at HQ and send drones into every conflict it would have affected his status with the team. Why should they go out there and risk their lives while Rudy basically plays video games?
Rex and Sampson especially wouldn’t be okay with that.
