Being connected to multiple satellites at the same time can mean lower latency, but more importantly lower jitter. The vast majority of…

Not anymore. No need. In the early stages there were increasing numbers of satellites so a pointing six months ago might now be far from…

From memory these are slower than some USB 2 drives.

It isn't going to be that fast if it is mSATA.

The quality with moving subjects is very poor and that is in reasonable lighting, so yes, but you wouldn't want to.
