The same problem I faced with mine is the weight.
The tube, camera, mount come in at 6-7kg and then you have the other accessories.
Seems to be a portable setup limited for road trips only!

The M56 Baader 2" click lock would be great ( have click locks on my other scopes) for visual. I don't think there will be enough out focus for attaching the DSLR with a 2in nose piece.
Im about to travel to Hamilton island for a couple of weeks, my final gear list:
FS60Q, 3 Eyepieces, Canon R5, RF 24-240, Sigma 14 1.8, Various Breakthrough filters. Go Pro 9. Batteries and chargers!
The mount (AZGTI) and Tripod (Peak design CF) are going in checked luggage, but even with that: carry on is pushing 11Kg. The Camera roller bag is 4Kg!!
Unfortunately Virgin has a 7Kg carry on weight allowance.
...problems problems!
