Reply to "home security camera(s) to monitor layout ops."

The Wyze cameras arrived this afternoon (the day after ordering them) and within a few minutes I had a camera connected to an Ipad.  First impressions of both the camera and application software were very positive.  The 1080p image is crisp, and there is an ability to do a digital zoom.   However I soon discovered in live streaming mode there was a 4-5 second delay between what the camera sees and what is displayed on the screen.  While the delay would not be an issue in most home security or baby monitoring applications,  however I need real time video streaming to control the movement of trains in a hidden areas (e.g stopping before the clearance point on a siding, stopping on the turntable, or positioning over a Kadee uncoupling magnet).  I'll contact Wyze tomorrow to see if the video sampling or packet transmission frequency is user adjustable.  If the video delay can not be reduced, I'll return the cameras to Amazon and begin looking for a direct feed video camera & monitoring solution.
