Just enquiring whether anyone has purchased the new Skywatcher EQ8-R Pro Mount ?
If so, I’m interested in the dimensions between the tripod feet when fully extended. I’m assuming there is no tripod leg extension adjustment up or down like conventional smaller mounts
I checked the EQ8-R Pro Mount Skywatcher manual and it shows 894mm between the feet , but it would be good if someone has one of these mounts to confirm dimensions
Reason : I’m considering setting up a dome observatory late this year or early next year and want to allow for a possible mount upgrade into the design
Cheers
