With @Steviegeek trying out Betaflight gps rescue.
This mode is a failsafe or emergency procedure (when your vtx craps out) to bring your quad home. In general terms.
It worked real well 3 times.
Please do not try this at home. Go to a large field.

Tried it on my DC2 tonight - worked well despite 12mph crosswind. Location not ideal so I didn’t see if it would land successfully on its own

It doesn’t land. It drops. Trust me 
That’d be a normal landing for me then

Did you have the failsafe set for rescue or just have it on a switch?
I tried it on the switch the other day and it works well.
I believe the default when it gets home is to.just drop too
I tried it within 100mtrs and it dropped

This was a quick LOS RTH test I did with my Nazgul when I first set up GPS. I had a Blade350QX with RTH that would return perfectly to 100ft above your head, and then land perfectly.
BetaFlight it appears takes a somewhat different approach 
- scared the pants off me the first time!
But, it does absolutely work…
