Copper Drone Addon

Copper Drone Mod — craft a reliable aerial scout you can launch, recover, and repair for smarter exploration and safer routes.

Think of this add-on as a tiny workshop project that changes how you read terrain. First you assemble the hardware, then you give it a brain, and only after that do you send it skyward. At a crafting table, combine 1 Redstone Engine, 3 copper blocks, and 5 iron ingots to build the Copper Drone itself. That recipe outputs a Drone Block, which looks great as a display piece on a bench, but it won’t take off until you craft the handheld controller. Make that controller by combining 1 redstone dust, 5 copper ingots, and 1 iron ingot at the table. Slip the controller onto your hotbar, set the Drone Block down, and you’re ready to put air under it.

Once the rig is flying, the value shows up in little moments you used to dread. Instead of edging along a ravine hoping the floor doesn’t drop, send the drone across first and trace a clean path in your head before you commit. In forests, pop above the canopy to spot clearings and rooflines, then drop back to ground level and move with purpose. Coastal runs are calmer too: skim along the shoreline to see where the sandbars end and the deep water starts, then choose a landing with a straight approach so you’re not wrestling leaves and fences on the way down. Treat it like a scout, not a battering ram—the drone is there to keep you out of trouble, not to brute-force it.



Durability and recovery are built into the loop. If the unit gets destroyed in a mishap, it won’t just vanish; it converts into a Broken Drone Block instead of despawning. Park that on a crafting table with 1 redstone dust, 1 iron ingot, and 1 copper block and you can repair it back into a working Copper Drone. In practice, this means you can be bold without being careless. Keep a “hangar” chest near your landing pad stocked with those spare parts, plus a couple of extra engines for future builds, and you’ll turn accidents into quick pit stops instead of full setbacks.

For day-to-day survival, set yourself up like a pilot. Mark a simple 3×3 slab pad on your roof so landings are predictable, add a fence lip to catch sloppy approaches, and place a lantern two blocks out from the edge so your descents read clean in low light. Don’t log out mid-flight; put the drone down first, then stash the controller so you don’t fat-finger a launch when you spawn back in. On co-op worlds, let one player scout biomes and village lines while another follows on foot placing way markers—your routes tighten up, your risk drops, and progress stacks faster than it used to.

What you get is a clean, survival-friendly loop: craft the drone, power it with a controller, fly where your feet would be unsafe, and repair it if something goes sideways. No gimmicks, no shortcuts through progression—just a new angle on the world that makes every trip feel planned instead of lucky.
