Yesterday, I flew my first autonomous mission with a 3D Robotics Y6. The mission is shown above (screenshot from DroidPlanner on a Nexus 7), and includes 6 waypoints between 25m and 50m AGL, including an auto-land at the end.

During the flight, I monitored output from the GoPro using FPV, and manually controlled pitch using my radio. This is just the raw footage—I haven’t had time to edit something better together. Shot with GoPro HERO3 Black at 2.7K/30p Protune, and Rotorpixel gimbal.
