New toy!
Got myself a DJI Phantom 2 Vison+ UAV drone thing.

First attempt at autonomous flight.

In this instance, it was flying itself via GPS. I just set the waypoints on a map.

Just set the waypoints on a map? I noticed that you posted "autonomous flight," but it was too late, fingers moved before brain fully engaged. For the first time in my entire life!

But seriously, that's an extremely fine flying machine!
