I saw the Meade LX80 head in Bintel at the weekend. It is very heavy, more than I expected. Interesting that the Meade doesn't have an autoguider port, so they need to make an accessory module. From the pictures the Skywatcher does have an AG port, so that's already one thing in its favour. Wonder what the price will be.
