    Viewfinder pretty much covered it. This one has a wire that plugs from the controller to the phone. Doesn’t work if you don’t plug it in, even if you spend 30 minutes trying to make it work. I know.
    I think some of the newer ones have a built in screen on the controller.
    You can take pics or record video by pushing a button on the phone screen or a button on the controller.
    Flying is pretty simple and if you let go of the control sticks, the drone will hover in place.
    You can fly looking at the screen as if you were actually on board.
    You can tilt the camera up and down from the controller to adjust your view as needed.

    Sometimes it takes a minute for the drone to figure out the altitude via GPS before takeoff. We've already tried to fly it at 5000ft and it wouldn't takeoff because we were on a mountain. After a minute it synced and took off without a hitch.
