How high-tech can DIY drones get?

[Eugene]

Hello,

I am wondering what the possibilities are with DIY drones. Is it possible to have all the capabilities of DJI Inspire 1 in a home built DIY drone such as "follow me", "course lock", "point of interest", and "home lock"?

Thanks for your responses.

Yes using the PixHawk would be able to do that. https://pixhawk.org/

Thanks camflite. Is there a good tutorial or a book that could lead me through using Pixhawk for implementing the capabilities I've mentioned above?
