OK I will. The only thing is we are not getting our new TT for about 6 weeks since it was just ordered it. I do plan on setting it up off of the trailer to test it and make sure it works OK.

Haha I hear ya. Don't count on 6 weeks for delivery. I was told 6-8 wks and we hope to get ours this week. It was April when we ordered it.

We leave on Saturday morning for the beach.....hopefully we get it.

I have soooo many mods I wanted to do before we left, don't think that's gonna happen but I have been making a list and the camera is one of them.

Keep us posted!

Tested it today, worked GREAT, backed up under the hitch first try. Then set it on back camper bumper to back it in.

Nifty! How real time was the signal?

Runs at about 15-20 fps. fast enough that all I had to do was lower the trailer on the ball. only fault is that picture is inverted, but figured that out real fast.

I currently use this exact setup...works like an absolute charm when mounted on the rear bumper (via velcro) to align the hitch/ball. i tried mounting on the rear bumper of my 28BH (31ft) but the wifi signal won't reach the driver seat through all that metal. it is extremely easy to use though...youtube has several good videos on them. i would definitely recommend for the price. plus, you can use it as a security cam when not using it for backing...just velcro it wherever you like...

Ughhhh keredniac...that's the issue with most of the other less expensive camera setups. The signal will not reach reliably or good quality from the back bumper of a TT or FW to the front of the TV.

TN VA CHRIS, you tried it from the back bumper of your TT?

So, I picked up a Googo on ebay for $20 shpg included. Now, I cannot find the app on the Google Play store from my Android phone. I've talked with Google support and they pointed me to the Googo developer in China. I sent him an email asking about the app. I have yet to get a response. Have any of you run in to this issue. ARGHHHHHH

Purchased on from Amazon. Not impressed. Connection to iphone in can is delayed and jerky. Really unusable.

I just ordered one from 4WheelParts that has a mount with earth magnets. The magnets are advertised as having 15lbs of pull per leg. It was 120.00 with the mount. Here is the link.

That looks pretty neat Charliec! My buddy's basic Googo works like a champ. However, I read a bunch of reviews and one of the biggest issues is that once downloaded your Android phone, the program keeps crashing. Once I finally found the app and downloaded it, this is the issue I realized. My program constantly crashes and never really opens enough to view the image. I've uninstalled and reloaded multiple times. I hope your software works better than what I download.
