### 2/5 — Needs A LOT of work

*2023-01-25*

The app is functional, but has a long way to go before being good.
The, “instructions” section shows 2 control screens with no explanation of why there are 2, when the app only shows one.

The, “instructions”, gives the button labels, but no explanation of function.  …the last thing you want to do with your new drone is try to figure things out, on the fly (pun not intended).

Some of the button labels are confusing - “MV” is some kind of effects editor, I guess?

All in all, if it weren’t for the camera monitor, the app would be entirely useless
