It's an EQ6 Pro.
Side-by-Side saddle plate.
10" LX200GPS OTA mounted via a narrow-to-wide adapter to a Losmandy dovetail bar (there's one of those on the top too).
Saxon 80ED as a "guider"

The imaging train on the SCT is:
- microfocuser (as modified by me with the ZWO EAF)
- adapter with a IDAS LPS filter
- Celestron 6.3 reducer
- OAG (as a spacer and potentially actually for guiding)
- 21mm spacer
- ZWO 8-position filter wheel
- ZWO ASI1600MM

The imaging train on the 80ED is:
- 2" bintel dual-speed crayford focuser
- 1.25" extension tube
- ZWO ASI190MM as the guide camera

It comes to balace with 20kg of counterweights, but it is pretty fully loaded.
Guiding looked pretty good given the circumstances, about +/- 1" most of the time.
