Fornax Mounts

[mariner10]

Hi people (happy NY to you all),
I was wondering if anybody has any information or experience with Fornax mounts.
I was digging around the net for mounts that have high load capacities and found Fornax to be up there in ability to carry the weight but at a lower cost to some of the more well known brands such as Paramount.
I want to set up a home observatory and have a decent mount that will take me well into the future as I undoubtedly change gear over the years.
Any advice or information would be appreciated.
Regards.

Steve.

I was in the UK and Europe for a few years, and honestly never heard of this mount...whatever it's performance, I can only assume the pricing was more aligned with the College/ University needs.

One of their team - Yuri Beletsky - is a member here, so you could ask directly :)

Reviews seem thin on the ground

Thanks people, I have to agree, there doesn't seem to be much information about them about the place. Makes me wonder why!

Hi Lewis, excuse the ignorance but how would I contact Yuri though IIS?
