I admit it is a little bulky, and takes up a lot of space, but I haven't had any balancing problems with it attached. It actually guides really well, and being able to use the entire FOV of the scope makes finding a guide star possible in the matter of seconds. No rotating and fiddling with prisms.

I have seen quite a few people using the MMOAG, so it must be good! My only experience with an OAG wasn't very successful I spent 3 nights trying to get it to work, with no luck. In saying that it was a cheap Orion OAG, so that might have been why

The MMOAG does look very compact. I'm guessing you use the MMOAG with your RC, Paul? How do you find it to use?
