Yes, the “standard” clamp mounts to the edge of a desk and is tightened with wingnuts or something similar. Both the OSR and SR6 have standard VESA mounting holes, so you can use many different types of mounts with them. Lots of people seem to use monitor mounts. I prefer the desk edge since it is very rigid (if you have a desk), and can be setup and taken down very very quickly.
I personally prefer the OSR2+ over the SR6.
- OSR2+ has half the # of servos, which allows most reasonable budgets to get higher quality servos for smoother operation. I would rather have an OSR2 with good servos over a SR6 with cheap servos any day.
- OSR2+ has half the # of servos, which is quieter (still not quiet).
- The movement of the SR6 seemed very “mechanical” to me - could be due to the cheap servos, or due to the extra amount of torque making very powerful movements. Either way, the OSR2+ felt a lot more natural to me.
- Working on and repairing the SR6 is more involved - many more parts and complexity.
- SR6 costs substantially more. These are hobby devices and may require some maintenance, tinkering, and parts replacement. The price of the SR6 may cause more disappointment/frustration when issues are encountered.
- The OSR2’s pitcher servo can be different than the L/R servos, so you can save some money there. The SR6 must have all identical servos.
All this being said, the SR6 is absolutely more powerful. If you’re into extremely fast scripts and heavy sleeves, the SR6 may be for you. Spreading the workload across multiple servos can be an absolute game changer if you’re a speed demon. Also, if you are “gifted” down below, the SR6 will handle long strokes and sleeve tightness better than the OSR2.
As for the additional axis, I personally didn’t find much of a difference with the additional movement axis - but I’m guessing it would be fantastic with dedicated scripts or the VAM plugin.
