I use the Baader MPCC Mark 1 but I’m looking at changing it as i believe it causes vignetting and isn’t really suited to my f/4 which apparently has been sorted out in the mark 3.
As far as your choice of guide camera, may I suggest the MM rather than the MC. With a guide camera you don’t need it to be colour and the monochrome is more sensitive with its lack of a bayer matrix. I personally use the 120mm mini and I find it does a more than ample job.
I’m running an 8” Newt on a HEQ5 pro which weight wise is pushing things but it has forced me to be careful and learn a lot about the way I’ve set it up to make it work. A 10” on a HEQ6 will be fine but if you learn how to balance properly and take the time to understand it that setup will be fantastic.
Cheers
Ryan
