Easy - refractor every time.
reasons:
optically an 80mm refractor will perform equally or better than a 114mm reflector.
Motor drive only useful at higher powers (above 100x) and with type you have to clutch in and out every time you shift object.
Reflector will not perform that well above 100x unless perfectly collimated.
Refractor does not need collimation.
Equatorial mounts are confusing for beginners.
