Hey guys, my first post on this forum so I thought I'd try to make it a useful one.
I bought a MP the other day for the first time and totally loving it so far compared to my P3P. Anyway, I decided to upgrade to a CS 5.5 for all the obvious reasons (battery life, brighter screen, etc.). I also own an Osmo+ and I wanted to use my CS with this too so I bought the Osmo Raw mount plus the extension arm. To my delight, the bracket that fits onto the bottom of the CS is exactly the same as the one for the Osmo too![emoji2] I originally thought they would be different and that I'd need to keep swapping the CS bracket, but I basically just slip the monitor off one device and onto the other in seconds.
To keep things tidy, you can easily unscrew the top section of the Osmo mount to remove the USB-C connector. This eliminates the need to have the redundant cable dangling around. There are just 4 tiny screws to undo (see photos). The mount is super stable, and although more expensive than other options on Amazon, I think the build quality and aesthetics are fantastic and well worth the money.
As for connection, the CS didn't find the Osmo wifi until I changed the frequency back to 2.4ghz. For some reason it doesn't see 5.8ghz. But the initial test was brilliant with less lag than using a phone and zero drop outs even at a few meters distance.
Anyway, I hope this helps those that own both a MP and Osmo+ and want to buy a CS monitor.
Feel free to ask me any other questions.
Cheers...
