For those who don't know - its a LOT of scope. I have the STL11000 mounted on the back. Anything that makes that camera look puny is a big beast.

It will be interesting to see how the PMX copes with the weight. Slewing around on Saturday it seemed to cope well but only time and some imaging will really show how it manages.

I am one happy camper. Now all I need is some clear sky.

Pete, the MX and 12.5 are a superb combo and well within spec of the MX's carrying capacity etc. I've seen CDKPhil's setup a number of times - the same as yours - and the build quality of that CDK always catches my eye. Congrats.
