I'd be advising you to try at short FL first ~500mm or so to get the hang of guiding first before plunging into 2000mm territory.

Thank you for your input Bo. I generally spend a fair bit of time getting my polar alignment as close as I can. When you say a finely tuned mount of under 1". What do you mean by that ? Are we talking a polar alignment accuracy of under 1" ? I have a couple of OTAs which much shorter FL that I can learn with first. Then I have the C5 that's 1250 I can step up to so that's good advice that I'll take. Thank you
