Yes possibly a problem there. I have calculated the weight of the equipment package. Total weight without including the 4 counter weights (which are down the bottom of the shaft) is 34kg all up. That is 7 kilo from capacity but well within spec.

My mount does not jump like that though. I am seeing a slight movement up and down over a period of time so the guiding looks like a slow sine wave over several minutes. Maybe it is too heavy but I had spoken to Daniel about the weight before and he did not say it was a problem.

Maybe I will move the counter weights up to the top of the mount and put on another weight to see if that makes a difference.
