I used to own a GSO 12" newt and I can say the mirror cell had a proper triangular support system (12 point I think it was). Three point mirror supports can work very well but are not usually found in modern production 12" mirror cells. I have a three point silicon PLOP designed mirror support system under my 10" GSO mirror in the imaging newt that I built and it works just fine - nice round stars, so that in itself may not be an issue in an imaging scope. What have other RC owners found re this type of mirror support and has GSO addressed this in a redesign?
