Flying Drone Carrier

This build was intended purely to prove a concept for hive mechanics, where a drone could travel anywhere undetected, complete a mission, and automatically land on a mobile command base for a secondary mission. While this build does do that, I don't know what to incorporate this into, so I will leave it to you to decide how you'd like go use it. Controls are fairly simple:
AG1 + AG8: Returns drone back to home base
Deactivating AG1 and AG8 turns off the magnet on the drone, allowing it to fly off.
AG3: Toggles Engine on Main Base
AG7: Sets Main Base to Hover.
Landing Gear: Toggles landing gear on drone

    In other news, exams happening soon so I should really not be doing this, and I'm kinda out of ideas for what to do, so till I see something interesting I'll leave it at that for now!
