The expensive ones are not hard to fly. They have numerous computers and automated return and land features if you feel like you're in trouble. The hard part is keeping things in frame and trying to make smooth shots that are pleasing to the eye.

I use the DJI drones. This video was shot with a Phantom 3 Advanced model. With the extra batteries and case it cost me about $1000.00 plus. But it has been a very fun although expensive toy.
