The standard HEQ5 mount tripod is solid and stable. I have a C-8, and it
handles it with contemptuous ease. I also have an 8" f/5 Newt with an
80mm finderscope/guide scope mounted on it, and electric focuser
and DSLR hanging off of it, and it's quite happy. The C-8 weighs less than
my 8" Newt, and is, of course, much shorter.
