Hi Lewis ,
I can not afford the SXD2 but the SX2 maybe ! I know nothing of this mount but I do think very highly of vixen gear from years gone by.
I would like to know more about the SX2 and how I could set the C8 with this work ability wise ??

Research !

Thanks Dave .

On the otherhand, all the Sphinx variants have a distinct advantage with thelarger tubes because the mount's CoG is MUCH lower than other mounts (since they mount the motors UNDER the RA asix, making the motors part of the counterbalance system). Theonly downside to the older Sphinx's is the Starbook, but the new SXD2 etc have the Starbook Ten which is superb and walks all over Synscan.
