If you’re talking about old camcorders then they were used by looking through an eyepiece rather than a screen, the eyepiece cuts out the light and makes it easier to see. However as soon as you zoom in it becomes more difficult to track, hence why having a separate, shrouded screen (field monitor)is a good idea. Something like this.

I find that the iPhone is great for most conditions and I can hold mine, without having to view the screen, and still keep the model in view. I used to use a Sony Ax53 but had to make a hood for the fold out screen to see it in bright light, in the end I made a ‘gun sight’ for it and used that instead. I’ve now got a Sony ZV E10 which is used mainly for VLOGs but use a separate, larger, hooded screen for outdoors work. My hat cam is a GoPro but like all of those types of camera the subject gets very small, very quickly. This vid was taken using my iPhone

Depends how small you want to go, I bought a set up these which are very good.

I’ve got one hanging up in the hangar, not been flown for at least 4 years so will be selling it at our club’s bring and buy in September! -
The OP asked 2 questions, would it be easier to setup a ‘plane using a FrSky (Ethos) Tx and can the same Tx be ‘buddied’ to a Futaba Tx? The first question is based on an individual’s opinion (and experience) and imo the answer is yes. The second question has already been answered with a yes.

Looks like the old Hobby King one. -
Wouldn't the cap strips obviate the need for that too?
