Good plan. I've been in and out of actively stargazing/imaging over the years - astrophotography seems to have become a bit of an arms race, with spiraling expenses and complexity. I'm going to leave my rather imperfect imaging setup as is, for catching the odd interesting phenomena here and there, and any further larger expenses will likely go towards a mobile visual rig, which I suspect will still be good in a few decades, whereas most of the electronic gizmos will have needed replacement a few times.....
