This is a WIP forum post about my upcoming mod - CustomDrones (a more catchy name for the mod maybe? :D)
Here there will be progress updates, asking for suggestions and public vote on what will be the best thing.
These drones will revolutionize the way transportation, automation, and companionship is done in Minecraft!
First let's see some screenshots of V0.1
Fully functional wings (which means they rotate xD), awesome flying mechanism.
Although no texture yet.
Here comes V0.2 images and new implementations
Drones now have gui, custom texture, custom crafting using the very basic craft bench, and basic customizability!!!!!!!
V0.2 images
A textured drone - Full emerald level, try to look closer as drones seem much cooler when you look closely.
Drone GUI
Shows a lot of information about the drone!!! maybe even too much??
You can install mods (but they do nothing for now) and later you will also be able to repair drones using ingots and gems,...so on, lots of items to be usable for drones
Crafting
Put some engines, some casings, a chip, and a core of any level in the same matrix and you will have a customized drone. Or use the creative inventory.
Future plans (which are being implemented right now, so actually they should be called "now plans")
Items transportation, mobs transportation, players transportation (yes, you can fly with it), automatic path making, environment scanning (ore scan, monsters scan,...) offensive behavior (shooting monsters?), auto item storage, solar powered drones, modules,....
These drones will revolutionize the way automation is done in Minecraft!
What you can do now with the drones?
For now, just flying them around and hitting the cows with them xD
Seriously, you can do that!
There is an item that helps you control the drone. Hold the item, right click to switch between modes, and fly 'em!
Or you can let them fly with you in creative mode, see who flies faster!
If there are suggestions to improve the model as well as the texture and the functions of the drones, I'm eager to hear them out.
If you want to try playing the drones for fun, here's the download
Any plans for smaller drones that can be set into defensive positions where they move to attack mobs within range, then move back to the position assigned to them? Or for patrol paths to keep a safe perimeter around your base?

Yes there can be smaller drones without customizability, like each tiny drone can only do 1 kind of task
