GX - Drones

Hello everyone!

This mod aims to add a little bit more spice for those who enjoy operating drones. The mod is a joint project between Turpin and myself, and I dare say this might just be the best one I released yet. The mod currently includes 4 new drones as well as compatibility with ACE to pickup/place drones inside your inventory for vanilla and CDLC drones.

If you are looking to add an extra touch of realism to your drones, check out Drone Signals by Turpin to restrict your connection ranges.


The MQ-8B Fire Scout by Northrop Grumman is our first large scale drone to be added to this mod. This initial variant is a Recon only variant and currently has no weapons. We are actively working on adding another variant that will also be able to deploy weapons systems. Please make sure to check out the vehicle garage for this one as it has parts that can be hidden as well as some benches that can be unhidden that allows it to carry up to two people. Bare in mind that the real variant did not have this feature, but we figured we would add it to give you all a bit more spice.


The Black Hornet 4 is a very small drone meant for short distance flight. Its ideal for flying through windows and checking out the interior of a building. The drone can be deployed through the vanilla drop and assemble system or ACE which gives you an additional option to deploy it via the equipment menu.


The Drone40 is a drone that is deployed via a 40mm grenade launcher. Its sports a Recon variant with a 360 capable turret, a HE version with a small explosive yield and a smoke variant. The drone can be deployed through a grenade launcher, via the vanilla drop and assemble system or ACE which gives you an additional option to deploy it via the equipment menu.


The Honeybadger is a UGV meant to destroy or disable vehicles by driving underneath them and detonating. The drone can be deployed through the vanilla drop and assemble system or ACE which gives you an additional option to deploy it via the equipment menu.


Alongside the new additions, compatibility has been added to all vanilla and CDLC drones to have inventory items that can be picked up and placed with our drone interact scripts. Say no more to big bulky backpacks with 0 inventory space.

We would also like to give a huge shout out to Lexx and the Reaction Forces CDLC for code inspiration, especially for the Drone40 part and how to deploy it.
