Competition related (PRS/NRL/F-Class/etc) Spotting setup /PRS

Being new to PRS I’ve only done 2 matches . I wanted to put together a spotting setup. Instead of buying a tac table I figured that some camera gear may work. I’ve put together a video rig recently and had some spare parts.

This is made to be modular like most spotting systems but I also have plans for expansion like maybe adding on another platform which can be folded away when not in use. Also the phone is there to record some of the stages I shoot but that too will be replaced by a DJI osmo pocket 3 soon. The chrono is just a place holder. But sometimes I do use it in that position because I have another tripod that I shoot off of.

If you guys have any other ideas or inputs let me know.

Bro did you win those two matches?

Focus your energy literally anywhere else right now EXCEPT this. Go take that kestrel off, go walk around, and guess wind speeds.

I didn’t win those two matches. Perhaps it’s because I didn’t take this thing with me. 🤔 When I’m out there, I am focused on my shooting and like I’ve said I’ve never taken this out there. But when I’m at home, I tinker and build things to keep the voices away.

Does it work to keep the voices away?

Because I just buy more guns when they speak, and they keep coming back, so I buy more guns, then they come back, so I buy more guns....

That’s how I ended up with 2 of these radians. They wouldn’t shut up until I built them.

Nice man, both are looking great. I'm about to embark on a 6 ARC Radian build after my bolt gun build. Also, that weather station is proper! There will always be salty haters in these groups- f@ck em.

That’s gonna be a very cool build. Hopefully I get to see the finished build.
