When I first got the camper, I thought I might have some difficulty. But with a little practice, I used only the side mirrors and nail it everytime. It's like second nature now. No flags, bells, whistles, signal man necessary.
I can whip down a ramp, have the wife fire it up and off the trailer in probably 60 secs. Retrieving can sometimes be trickier when backing down an empty trailer. Small steering corrections keep it tracking straight.
The flags aren’t about not being able to back with the side mirrors...in fact quite the opposite. You watch the flags in the mirrors.
Ever try backing up small boat or single place PWC trailer? There is nothing to see in those side mirrors until the trailer is jackknifed.
