Borg ed77II telescope

Hi all,
I have been looking at the Borg 77ed II telescope for a light weight grab and go set up for visual (wide field) at this stage.
Fully upgrade able objective and accessories, f6.6 510mm focal length, 80mm tube diameter, only 2.7kg.
Anyone used the Borg system before ? and experiences with this outfit would be much appreciated before I commit to anything.
Cheers

Hi Wilso,
I have a Borg 90FL with FTF for imaging and an ED89 for visual and love them both. Super light and very well made. Excellent optical quality and modular flexibility is v. useful. Figuring out the bits needed can be daunting. PM me if you need any help on parts or advice on where to buy at best prices. Also, Ted at Hutech is incredibly helpful and replies promptly.
Jason.
