As long as it's theorycrafting, you can stack up DDA's and sentry rigs all you like, but an actual ship will never get that theoretically perfect gank number. Aside from the inherent hit variability, you've got to deal with misses generated by transversal, targets ducking out of optimum range, target signature issues, and how long the drone carrier will last in combat.

Four Tech II DDA's will get you to well within the margin of error of the theoretical sentry 749 DPS maximum, and all five of the prime subcapital drone boats can accomplish that: the Dominix, Dominix Navy Issue, and Rattlesnake with Gallente Battleship V; the Gila with Gallente Cruiser V; and the Ishtar with Gallente Cruiser V (which is a prerequisite for the Ishtar in any case).

(The Rattlesnake can manage full drone gank and still mount an astonishing shield tank, thanks to its mid-slots and the resistance bonuses it gets from the Caldari Battleship skill. Dominixes can improve on drone gank by mounting guns because they've got hybrid bonuses, and they can mount a decent shield tank.)

The most drone DPS you will get from a subcap is 749 with this fit:
