Look near the gooseneck/thermostat housing of your engine. You should see

Second that motion! No yelling = no chaos. Hand signals rule. Reliance on
fragile electronics when you are only 40' away at best seems vulnerable too.
Big project crane movements are run on hand signals except when the crane
operator cannot see the person directing the operation. Cheaper too:)
