| Since the FAA would never allow me to make a "drone", I shall have it controlled by the user, through computer controlled long range radio-transmitters. And it shall also shoot stuff. I just learned how to use microcontrollers today and it'll be so awesome trolling around my town with an airsoft drone. |

and then someone would take it down. trolling is going to be boring by the time you're done. seriously, they already trolled kasparov and angela merkel with remote controlled aircraft.
anyway, helicopters/multicopters don't have a good-enough-for-general-trolling loiter time. |

get an arduino to comunicate with a beagle bone black "dont use raspberry pi" Via blue tooth so you can give the drone commands through the computer, and not jsut the computer but through a website, so you can control it on your phone. |

| Does bluetooth even have enough range? I was gonna get like a 10 mile range OP transmitter, or even better a 4G drone. |

depends on the communication power.
the most powerful transcievers within bluetooth regulations have about 100m range. although you can transmit/receive data further than that(IIRC the current record is 22km, but they used amplifiers and directional antennae for that) by using more power, but that would probably be illegal:-/

I was planning on doing the same with a raspberry pi.
One usb hub.
Connected to the usb hub are four propellers.
Connected to other usb port (which the hub is not connected to) is a bluetooth.
It takes in signals, and each command is coded so that certain frequencies will activate certain commands.
Say, I fire off one frequency, it will tilt itself forward. This will make it move forward, as I have learned from Battlefield 3 helicopter physics.
Another will make it tilt back, and so on and so forth.

for all we know, someone blasted iranian nuke silos with farming implements.
anyway, i don't think a raspberry pi can provide a lot of power on its own, so you'll probably need separate speed controllers, which are quite sensitive:-/ |
