I see where you're coming from. Actually, most of the translation / swing occurs with the first 20 or 30 degrees of turn and just doing "pylon" type turns would demonstrate much of what you want to see.

It would be interesting to have someone with a tripod in the back of a vehicle with a camera focused on the hitch with enough field of view to see the entire arrangement as you've done with the previous video. Then do a series of increasingly deep turns. Much of the dramatic action at the hitch is within 20 = 30 degrees back and forth as the Orange part swings across the centerline pretty quickly!. Of course at the end of the arc when the hitch swings almost sideways would be pretty impressive as well - if you can get your TV to turn tightly enough to get there (without backing up..) I wonder..
That would seem like something Hensley might want to put up on their website. They've got to have this type of thing somewhere..
