Hi Paul
I have 2 questions for you regarding the new EQ8-R pro mount -
1/ what is the distance in mm between the extended tripod feet once levelled
2/ What is the height in mm from the tripod base to the ground once levelled before you plonk the mount head on

Reason - I have 2 off EQ6-R Mounts , one at my home in Sydney and one at my weekender south coast. I’m considering putting in a Nexdome Obs at my weekender later in the year and want to make provisions for a larger mount like the EQ8-R pro Initially as a tripod mount and maybe pier mount later on in the future. I will make provisions for concrete footings etc for my EQ6-R ( distance between tripod feet is 970mm ) and hopefully the EQ8- R pro will have a similar distance between the tripod feet

Await your advice

Thanks in advance
