It’s not that the first one is completely impossible, but we’re not quite there yet technologically. And even if we could build the first one, the second one would probably be less than a 1000th of the price to make.
Even if it’s not completely impossible, it would be completely useless. What would be the point of rotary chain guns on a drone? Assuming the thing had enough lifting capacity to carry the barrels, there isn’t enough space in that thing to carry enough ammo to fire for more than a second.
You’d kinda run into the same issue either way, you’d either have not enough ammo or not enough battery storage. Plus, there isn’t really a reason to have rotary barrels on something like a laser. They would theoretically be more of a sustained fire kind of weapon.

Would you rather have 1 of option A or 1000 of option B?
Kind of depends on what your specific goals are, but 1000 to 1 odds tend to tilt things in option B’s favor.

I was assuming they’d be some kind of laser weapon or something

WTF is option 1 even supposed to be? Looks like a device producing extremely much engine noise to me.
