I believe the imaging payload capacity of a HEQ5 is 11kg, for visual its 15kg. I'd be very surprised if a 10" f/4.7 newt weighed as little at 11kg complete with finder, DSLR etc. I know a 10" GSO imaging newt weighs 15kg for the OTA (accordng to Luke at Andrews). My NEQ6 handles my 8" imaging newt and camera just fine but I wouldn't put a 10" production newt on it - which is why I am building a lightweight 10" imaging newt. Andrew do you know how much your newt/camera weighs?
