The coverage of Formula 1.0 on Facebook has been incredible! I can't wait to hear form their tech people as to how they managed to obtain LIVE in-flight interviews of the pilots. Tracking for spectators and this type of contest coverage may help sell the sport to Millennials up to about late GenX. We need stories (with visuals) and we need heroes. Every sport has its heroes.


Around Leeton the 4G coverage is really good. Then it is just simple hardware with a webcam and a decent antenna and using off the shelf IP video call software. Whole rig cost around AUD$100 to set up.
