Image scale will be your big problem here John.

If you use the KAF8300 with that scope it will be around 0.66" per pixel. That is about as low as you are really wanting to go at 1x1. The KAF8300 is an aging tech but it still delivers.

The use of 1x1 on the 1600 sensor is most likely not going to be possible as you will be around 0.46" per pixel. That is nearly unworkable in traditional guiding. You would need to bit quite a lot of the time in my opinion.

The sweet spot I think is around 0.76-0.95, so maybe look for sensors that will give you that sort of scale.
