i just bought a camper, and I'm needing a camera for backing up solo to keep from having to get in and out. What do y'all recommend? I'm towing with a 2021 GLS450, so not sure there is anyway to tie anything in factory. Figure I could take my iPad and connect something Bluetooth maybe to be able to see better than trying to look on my phone. What do y'all recommend or recommend to avoid? Thanks!
I bought this and found it to be pretty good. I've got a 24 foot enclosed trailer and the signal is fine at that length.

I bought this one recently. It seems pretty similar to the product suggested above. I'm pulling an 18' trailer with an extended E350 and have no issues with signal or image quality. I'm very impressed at the price point.

EDIT: As an additional benefit, it's easy to stick to the van doors to aid in trailer hookup.
I have the exact same one Miketallica linked to. Having it be wireless was nice for our Class C but would be really great for a towable like yours.
The magnetic base allows you to remove the camera quickly and do things like put it on the ground and use it to watch yourself go up on leveling ramps. Or you can put it on the post with the hookups and see exactly when your connections line up. We put on a bike rack that would have obscured the view from the bumper, but we just moved the camera onto the bike rack itself which was actually better since it gave us a higher up view.
