please answer nicely, as i am a re-spec, because they raped rifleman.
i want to make awesome BH droids as they are the rage after the re-spec(poor jedis)
There are three types of droids commonly referred to as "BH droids" - Seekers, Arakyd Probe Droids and Bomb Droids. The first two are used by Bounty Hunters to track their marks. The third is actually useable by either Bounty Hunters or Smugglers, but is most often used by Bounty Hunters hunting Jedi. For the first two the quality of the resources is completely unimportant. Since you wish to make "awesome BH droids" I will assume you mean Bomb Droids. Unfortunately it is currently only the first two which are popular since the Detonation Module has joined the ever growing list of broken modules and so Bomb Droids do not currently work. Any monkey with 0003 Droid Engineer and Master Artisan can run off Seekers and Arakyds of exactly the same quality as a Master Droid Engineer, so don't expect to be making fame or fortune with these.
i know to use the dz70 advanced deed, but any special componants needed?
I don't know where you heard to use DZ70 Advanced Droids, but this is incorrect. For Bomb Droids you typically want to be using either the Advanced MSE Droid (which gains a bonus per detonation module giving it a maximum detonation power of 40) or the Advanced R3 Droid (which has a maximum detonation power of 60). Arakyds and Seekers are seperate items.
i have never been a BH so i don't know how they work. thank you in advanced for not flaming me as a noob DE lol.
My advice to you would be to decide if you truely want to be a Droid Engineer or just make some credits. If it's the latter then find another crafting profession. It is possible to make millions as a Droid Engineer, but it takes a significant investment of effort. If you truely wish to be a Droid Engineer then consult the DE 101 sticky, keep up-to-date on reading this forum and make and use as many different droids as you can to learn about them all. If you do decide you want to be a Droid Engineer then good luck to you. It is a very fun profession, if you have the perseverance to stick with it.

is there a droid part that can store pets?
No. With a data storage, you can store scematics in your droid. The level of your data storage will determine how many schematics you can store. If you are a pilot and this is an R-series droid, the level of your data storage is also considered your astrmoech level. For the data storage, if you try to store pets, vehicles, etc into the data storage, you will get an error message and not be able to.
You can also have item storage in your droid. For each droid, the max # of items you can store is 10 (with a level 6 item storage module). However, you are limited on what you can put into this storage container. Many things (i.e. trail packs with items in it) will be considered "too bulky" to be stored in the droid. When I make factory runs, I typically store my "sorted" resources for the runs in the droid.
