With practice, you can track a launch on a basic tripod. Knowing the trajectory and set up so you track in elevation as much as possible. I did it a bunch when I worked at VAFB. You need a large hooded screen next time, maybe even a fpv style hood. You still had the boosters in view when you gave up.

Hey, man, you guys brought some major enthusiasm there, and it's good to see other people getting as excited as I was. As far as I'm concerned, us Kerbs are the public vanguard of the rocket world. Plus it's fun to talk about esoterica like plume expansion, or why the exhaust coming out of the center core has a shorter flame than the boosters. Good times.

12 months on this still has to be one of the best Rocket Launch Video’s on KZread. A credit to those who took it and appeared in it. Brilliant!!

I'm so jealous of you guys. I called in sick to just watch the launch and you guys felt and heard it. My emotions were through the roof!!! This perspective is awesome.
