Pushing it?
I have a 5.7kg refractor enroute to me. I use a 1.5kg CCD, and maybe another kg if I use guidescope setup. That's 8.5kg.
The GPD2 I have now is rated to 10kg. Most say this is a photographic/conservative limit, but if it isn't, is 8.5 on a 10kg mount going to be pushing the realm of good tracking etc for imaging?
I love this mount, been perfect from day one, and I have had some awesome tracking and guiding with it. I have had it for sale in the hope of getting a Tak NJP, BUT now thinking do I even need to?
Yeah, I know no such thing as over-mounting, but I feel I just dont need to change anything. Thoughts?
