Welcome into the hobby!!!! I know at lest one guys that is in california, Mitch Anderson came directly from there with is son to battle the migthy E-10 this summer....!!!! Loïc from Feild of Armor seem to try hard on growing the hobby their also...!
About the FPV stuff, in battle, there is a lot of stuff going on all arround and the tactical hawarness will be reduced a lot in a camera view even by simply controling the turret only you will need to be able to quickly look arround but letting the turret facing foward to absorb the shots...! No need to be accurate, fonctionnality is more important. Just look at the Panzer II of the Pitteli's small tank but super oversize turret to fit the paintball!!! Look more in the tank list, there is Leopards, abrams, swiss tanks(?), etc, so no era limitation!! Looking foward to see your project going and good luck.
