Will drop what they're carrying if destroyed. (I think they despawn after landing and don't drop their item, but I can't really confirm this.)
They can carry cassettes, which drop to the ground when the lantern despawns/is destroyed and continue playing. The same can be done with multiple c4/satchels, which will fall and re-attach to something else when the lantern is destroyed.
Seems to fly in a straight line dependent on the angle between you and the lantern when you light it (or it and the igniter). Speed seems to be random, which causes varying distance (Most I measured was just short of 1.5 grids, least was just short of 1.)
They begin falling after taking a small amount of damage, but take seemingly twice as much to actually be destroyed.

With the new update you can put c4 on the sky lantern and use it to raid bases.
The base has to be 3-5 floors tall depending on the distance, in order for it to work with a 3 floor base you need to do it from around 2 foundations away (which at that point you might just throw the c4 normally), in order for it to work with a 4 floor base you need to do it max 9 foundations away although depending from what angle you ignite it the sky lantern may go slightly higher or lower, from my testing the sky lanterns maximum height is slightly above 4 floors (igniting it from the ground level) meaning when you use it from further than 9 foundations it will up to the 5th floor of a base (depending on the terrain).
Also the sky lantern spins while in air so i recommend putting the c4 on the side which you are sending the sky lantern from if you do it up to 9 foundations away. If you do it correctly it should take the same ammount of c4 as raiding normally. If the base you are raiding with this has a roof the lantern may either get stuck under it or fall further away from the wall dealing less damage.
As i failed to mention the moment the sky lantern comes in touch with a base or anything else it starts falling meaning you can wait for it to fall and detonate the c4 at your desired level.
It is also possible to shoot down the sky lantern in order for the c4 to fall on top of the base but i find it really hard, i found that when shooting the lantern from basically any angle it deals basically no damage so you need to shoot its very top (also works if you shoot the bottom of the top from under it), which you need to do a specific ammount of times so you can easly break it from the side as its further away. I would recommend trying it yourself on a sandbox server before doing it in game to get the gist of it. Here is a link to a video of me testing this in a sandbox server: https://youtu.be/HdmOwJ1ADrs
(also a little disclaimer some of this stuff may possibly be untrue as for example the difficulty of destroying them mid air may be just a sandbox' servers goof and it may be different in normal gameplay)
