That seems like a good fit. Faerie's "death by a thousand needles" 1/1 creature clock has just been too slow for modern but turning a 1/1 into a 3/3 makes it a lot more relevant all of a sudden, and the looting is amazing in a deck that runs AV
In Standard it's a very efficient threat, but in Modern it's 'just' efficient. It seems like the Faeries could be a good home for it to help with the high land count and beefing up Bitterblossom tokens. Another home could be something like Aristocrats, or any grindy deck with a graveyard/discard theme, and could be enabled by Golgari Thug.
So since the banning, Copter is dirt cheap, and I am wondering if it is worth having a set. outside of Vial decks, is there really a home for it? when it was discussed before, the meta was much faster, new decks have been popping up, old decks have a shot. what do you see being the best build, or is it just not good enough ever?

I tested it in my Emeria build, as a 2-of. Then upped to 3. Now a full playset. That card is so good in it! Took out Wall of Omens entirely. It does everything that the Emeria deck needed - faster clock (turn two Copter into turn three Pilgrim's Eye is so good), pitches dead cards, is great with Squadron Hawk (card advantage!), avoids my own board wipe and opponent's sorcery speed removal.
I expect that it'll find a good permanent home in some tier build of something eventually, just needs time and maybe some new cards that'll push it further.
