I have always wanted to use an AO unit with my newts, but as with everything there is a pay off. It is nearly impossible to fit one within most correctors distances, the only one I can think of is the RCC. And then extra backfocus means bigger secondary which in the case of the GSO newts means stronger everything. I have contemplated building my own parts for GSO mirrors out of carbon fiber.
The eagle neb is showing exceptional resolution I hope you persist with the newtonian, they are a love of mine.
