Ahhhh but then the next time your head whacks into the protective shield the OAG will get damaged because the guider is so rigid.... or you clamp the cable to the guider body to prevent the connector from tearing out, only to snag the usb cable really hard with your elbow... there are so many ways things can go wrong despite your best efforts, just move slower around the scope The really big counterweights on the A200HR and the impressions in my skull have taught me that.

Best,
