Sweeping comments....

....Don't buy a new car, get something used with zero service history and make sure you then service it yourself

BTW..The 2016 gearbox housings are full secured and have no engineering problems, you don't have to slew high torque motors at 800-1200x...they are much quieter at 600x.

I've been servicing Losmandy mounts for 20+ years with Scott himself showing me how the mounts should be set...but my experience has been many Oz G-11 users perform a DIY service...if at all...it is cheaper... so long as you know what you are doing.
