Description

A recon-drone gadget: the player launches a scripted fly-cam to scout and tag guard positions, then remotely disables cameras and alarms, gated by a server-checked recon_drone item, before the crew breaches. Servers buy it because recon-drone tooling is trending and reads as premium tech-forward content.

Known Failure Modes & Corrective Prompt

  • Client-only disable, per-client disabled state lets other crew still trip alarms; hold one securityDisabled flag on the server and broadcast to -1.
  • Stuck camera, forgetting RenderScriptCams(false, ...) + DestroyCam traps the player in the drone view; tear the cam down on land.
  • Anim before load, the tablet pilot pose no-ops without RequestAnimDict + the HasAnimDictLoaded wait.
  • No item gate, without the recon_drone check any player can disable security from anywhere; verify the item on the server.

Corrective re-prompt: Make the disable server-authoritative, keep securityDisabled in server.lua, set it inside the drone:disableSecurity handler after the GetItemByName('recon_drone') check, broadcast drone:securityDown to -1, and clear it via SetTimeout.

Framework Integration

  • ESX: swap to getInventoryItem('recon_drone') and esx:showNotification; the cam + tagging code is framework-agnostic.
  • QBCore: exports['qb-core']:GetCoreObject(), Player.Functions.GetItemByName, QBCore.Functions.Notify; broadcast the disable with -1.
  • QBox: use exports.qbx_core + exports.ox_inventory:GetItem; render the drone HUD via ox_lib and gate cameras through your camera resource.

Profit Potential

$400-$6000/mo on Tebex (expected ~$1500), priced within the $50-389 script band against a corpus of comparable Tebex sellers (median ~$11.85K/mo), scaled for a hot trending recon-tech niche.

Trend Signal

🔥 hot, inferred: Recon-drone tooling is trending in FiveM; tech-forward demand climbing fast.

Sales Angle

Position as the standout recon gadget, scout, tag, and disable security before anyone enters, the kind of tech-forward feature that markets a whole server. Recommended Tebex price $249.
