Hi Darren,

If you pack your Skywatcher ED80 and HEQ5 mount in a well padded box and keep it inside the car and NOT in a trailer they should survive the trip very well, if you intend taking the 10 inch Dob also you may need to be a lot more careful about how well you pad the scope and don't put it in a trailer where it will bounce around, with the dob you will need to check Collimation as vibrations can cause a small shift during transport.

I often travel with my 12inch Meade LX200 packed in a well padded JMI case with wheels and it always survives the rough roads very well but it does take up the entire back seat of a medium size car.

All the best, Wayne.
