- dzhiurgis 7y agoIt does go sideways, all sailboats do. But usually less than1 knot when sailing 5-10 knots. Roll on monohulls is pretty big. Current generation of Youtubers seem to have switched to catamarans, which makes me too envious - I am not sure I can save up that much before responsibilities catch up on me.
- Klathmon 7y agoI'm far from an expert on this, but I believe the biggest benefit to phased array antennas is that they don't have any moving parts, and adjusting where the signal is pointing is almost instant. As long as the "pizza box" can track the sats, it should be able to communicate through some pretty intense speed and acceleration changes.
