Thank you all for your comments. The advice has been valuable.

I just went to see the weight of my setup and I'm on 6kg and that is with no filter wheel or Guide cam for future setups. I did read a review of a user that has been using the AVX for many years says that its recommended the payload be no more then 5kg for accurate DSO guiding.

I'm now looking closer at the Skywatcher mounts (EQ6-R) and yes the new units come with USB and cable (bonus), but the price is $1k more than what I was looking at.... I guess you get what you pay for.

Thanks again.. keep safe
Wayne
