It needs a G8 or better G 11 to mount it ; Vixen sphinx sxd (the big one) is OK too.
I am going to start setting up in an hour or so, been having a lot of issues but that's been software related and not the telescope. Had an adapter arrive (flattener to QHY9) two days ago so I'll have a chance to get something up and running this evening.
