Actual field visibility is fairly good but the glass gets smeared . I would say parking on batter got easy and as time went on LG and Scaling were easier too. We are working on HG still and will change out our camera for CVR to a lower lag model and adding another camera for HG shots changing things around.
Okay, thanks for letting me know. What do you think of this idea. ( we are planning on testing this out at our first regional at bayou). Geting a collapsable 8 foot pole, and than mounting that to our driver station with a camera on the top. It's legal, and should theoretically have no lag since direct usb 3.0 connection. Would you think a birds eye view like this would help?
