camera pole

Hi
I have some questions about the legitimate of camera pole in this year's game.
For those of you who do not know what I'm talking about-it is a pole with a camera on top (usually GoPro) where drivers can see the field from above.

1. Is it still valid this year?
2. Is there a maximum hight for this pole?
3. Can anyone give me a pick or a guide our own?

Thanks: P

Re: camera pole

1. It is allowed by rules, but is not very useful.
2. It is still legal as long as it is not taller than 6ft 6in.
3. For my teams last year we had 2 PVC pipes that fit inside each other. IN the smaller pipe we drilled a hole to stick a screwdriver though to keep it in an extended position.
