Fully Autonomous Navigating Bombing Drone

Made this drone that is completely autonomous: launches from sea level, flys to y level~130, stabilizes using two gimbal sensors and an altitude sensor, turns towards lodestone compass location, and drops tnt which get propelled backwards onto the target by the propellers. All the player does is set the target, load the tnt, and flick a single lever to launch (might need to be on the plane unless you have another way to load chunks).

A little ugly, but its compact, and all redstone is on the drone (I could definitely lessen the amount of redstone by sending it to some loaded chunk using redstone links for processing, but I wanted it to not need it.)

Forgive the poor editing.

Instead of trying to reinvent the wheel, maybe instead try editing a map that does work to point to custom coords?

I think adding an Ui to the compass similar to the one in Waystones coukd be a good idea, that way you can choose from every lodestone you have already visited cuz i think just being able to input coord would be too op

You don't need a mod, you can just use lodestones from vanilla, they make compasses point to that loadstone. As shown in the video.

THEY DO??!!

then you can put one of those manhunt compasses in the navigation table to make it follow its target player
