Blimey Suzy, I'm hoping mine won't weigh 2 kg when it gets here, (still impatiently waiting !!
). The EQ6 can swing about 25 kg supposedly but better to keep it well within that. Serrurier target is less than 10kg because it will also need to carry photogear, DSLR and eventually a guide scope.
Sky was clear when I got home last night so I set up with the 114 and DSLR but by the tme it got dark it also got cloudy. Lugged it all back in again about 10
. Geez that thing weighs a bit !! I'm looking at a more permanent setup, astrohutch or something. I have the space and location, just need the $$$.
