Perhaps I could use a second antennae as a functioning video antennae.
Just in my experience the novelty wears off pretty quick. Once you lose peripheral vision and are operating in the first person you start running into stuff and it actually gets boring to me since you don't get to see the suspension working or the various functions. To each their own though and yea, you can get fpv setup's pretty cheap these days. Just put a fpv setup in my excavator, used it twice and took it out.
