Hey Dunk, well for the purposes of most people, yes it can be regarded as fixed. It is factory set. In Larry Carlino's review on Cloudy Nights, he found it to be spot on, but just did a small tweak to the secondary. I am hoping for something similar. Thankfully it did not have to bounce it's way across several states.

It does have adjustment screws for the primary, just like the RC models, but I will never touch them, they are factory set.
I will know more about the collimation when this darn cloud departs. There is a nice line up of planets from 3-4am in the morning, and I hope it clears by then.
