Defango Stream Setup

I use a LG V20 Phone and use my hands to hold it sideways. I was using a OSMO but it wasn't the best experience. Tripods aren't my thing but I'm looking to get a chest mount I can just clip my phone off and on. I decided to get a harness and 3d print a custom mount with a magnet like car stream. That way I can clip my phone to my chest and walk around with a good video and still be able to read the chat on the screen. The magnet will let me quick release the phone for getting better angles.

Camera: LG V20
I use this phone because the battery life isn't to bad and it doesn't get to hot when your using the WIFI. I have it on T-mobile but the network isn't the greatest. I just a AT&T hotspot for the streaming and it has been giving me better connection. I have a 20,000 MAH battery that I keep the phone and hotspot connected to in a fannypack. Keeps my hands pretty open and let's be stream longer. The only problem I have is that I lost my good USB Cable so I'm using the shorter stock one that limits the range.

Hotspots: AT&T, SPRINT, T-mobile

I figure you need at least a Verizon or AT&T hotspot to get a decent stream anywhere. Right now T-mobile has good 4g but the 480p limiter really makes it a pain to try to use it. If your video is going at anything over 800 KBPS it's going to downsample and make your stream stutter. Sprint is good with one bar of 4g LTE but it's kinda not good if your not in a city. The AT&T works in a lot of places and is pretty smooth, just keep it plugged in and you should be able to do some pretty good mobile streams without to much of a problem

APP: bitstream or streamables
These are key for getting the right numbers. I just stream at 480p because anything over that waking around isn't the best. Keeps it smooth without to much blocks. We aren't there yet in America with the Cell networks so Standard Def should be ok, this was impossible 4 years ago.
