Vicon bw1800 wrapper

I've been thinking about swapping our wrapper with one that can be towed behind the baler to save time.

What are these vicon satellite machines like? Are they the same as kverneland ones and are they reliable?
Also been considering a mchale 991c but think maybe a satellite would be more stable on slopes. Our baler struggles to do more than 35/hr as we chop any heavy crops so output doesn't have to be great.

Their a good wrapper but the satelitte are no longer produced.

The new version comes with a gyro for stabilising the bale as its wrapped.

The vicon will have a much lower centre of gravity than the mchale bigger tyres too and handle a much larger bale
