I'm feeling quite smug just now having stuffed it up a self-seeking Oyster system last night!
Just as I was about to "Crank up" I noticed an Oyster dish erecting itself (as it were ) on an enormous and very expensive American RV.
Rising to the challenge I was quite chuffed to have got a lock, and fine-tuned, while the Oyster was still nodding at intervals and rotating back and forth.
I wouldn't want to bad-mouth an Oyster system as I know nothing about them, but on the basis of this recent victory (nay, thrashing!) by a lowly Maxview Crankup, I would have to wonder if it's worth spending all that extra money?
Would the <a href=http://www.outdoorbits.com/product_info.php/cPath/11_60/products_id/486>Maxview Crankup</a> drop through the same hole as a Status ST530?
Or is the hole different size, would the offsets be similar from the inside wall of wardrobe?
Ask Snelly - I'm not sure.
I doubt it as the winding apparatus would probably foul the side of the wardrobe on most fittings I have seen.
You can get a bespoke cover plate for the hole left by a Status though, and it looks very neat.

I mounted mine in the middle of the roof, carefully positioned so I could face the telly and reach up to the Crankup winder as conveniently as possible.

Just for interest.
Yeah its worth the extra,to me anyway.
Just hit a button and let it do its thing while I put the kettle on.
The other thing is,I dont have to remember to wind the thing down when I leave site,it does it automaticaly when the engine starts up,but the main reason is..I am one lazy fat barsteward.
