Also, we used a go pro with a 27" hdmi screen, and absolutely loved the quality.
We had better luck with the go pro hero 4 than the hero 3+ being better quality when streaming from the camera directly to the screen. |
I looked at a few different poles at Home Depot when we built our setup, the painters poles and tree trimmer poles were ridged but overkill in my opinion (plus heavy, making it harder to hold up), eventually I came across
these.
They come in like 3 different sizes (got this one before the rule change, in retrospect we could have gotten a smaller one), but they're great because they're very light, compact, and are more than ridged enough to support a small camera. We used a PVC
DWV Closet Flange adapted down to short 1-1/4" PVC pipe that fits the pole nicely and mounts to the driver station with strong Velcro.
As for the camera, we just use a Logitech C920 Pro Webcam with a 6ft usb extension into our 17" laptop (we also have a small 7" HDMI screen that can be used do display either the camera or dashboard as a second monitor).
