Can I use another Netgear AX satellite for my Orbi Wifi 6?

Hi, Netgear community!

I got myself the Orbi Wifi 6 (RBS852) recently and still have some dead spots at the further end of my home. I'm wondering if I can get other lower end NG AX satellite to work with my Orbi Wifi 6? Or I still need to invest in RBS850? I won't need the best of speed at those spots, just need better coverage for some of my IoT devices like security cam and stuff, really appreciate any advice from the community! Thank you.

No experience however the 7 series AX RBS may work. Not sure about that. 

Orbi AC RBS are not compatible as of yet. NG was reported to make them compatible at some point. No idea when that will happen.
