Greetings, I am in a similar situation. The million dollar question; Will there be support for spreadwings and the ronin x. I am still trying to get my Z15 gh4 combo working, (bad gimbal), in the process I had a intermittent short in one of the motors which caused a crash with my s900. I believe a total motor failure would have been better than what I had, (when dead motor came back to life it caused a usual attitude which led to a rather hard prang.) After wresting the s900 down with 5 1/2 motors, I think I will take my chances with the s1000+ and upgrade. Not that motors fail very often, (usually exposed esc wire that has had its insulation removed.) s900 is fairly wild on less than 6 motors, same as all hexcopters.
In summary, my s900 A2, LB2 system is barely older than 6 months and I am not sure if I want to bail on wings series as I already am invested in the spreadwing ecosystem.
The Spreading Wings airframe is still a viable product, so there would still be support. The MX mount that comes with the M600 is similar to a universal mount for Ronin products in general, there are no real installation issues as far as cabling is concerned. The part that Support centers can't help with is with modifying the MX mount to work on other aircrafts, or making a mount out of the univeral one from the DJI Store. Most other operational errors such as gimbal drift, FPV etc. can still be troubleshooted the same way as if it was on a M600, though the question on the stability of the said 'makeshift' mount would have to be questioned.
Hope this helps. |
