The G11 limit is accurate and applicable to astrophotography - no 'rule of thumb' reduction needed. I run a C14 on a G11 without problems (although I did upgrade to high torque motors, not that I really needed them). At one point, Celestron sold the two together as a package called 'CG14' though that G11 mount allegedly had 'beefier' bearings according to some.
The G11 is a very well made/machined mount and Gemini 1 or 2 is very capable, but the handset might drive you crazy.
