Hi
Like Mike I will be using my EQ6 GOTO mainly for planetary imaging and just visual work. I have heavily modifided the mount so that it can carry the weight of the 14" LX200R (27kg). With 22.5kg's of Gym weights to balance the system it fuction very well as a planetary imaging platform. So how much weight can an EQ6 carry, so far the max is 27kg as long as you only plan to use it as a planetary imaging and visual platfrom.
Before anyone ask the question when will I post the first imaging they will come in due course, I am still in the shake down stage e.g refineing polar alignment, collimation, setting up the power and computer system etc.
