I have both a Skywatcher HEQ5 Pro and a EQ6-R Mount
Both are controlled beautifully via Ascom / EQMOD and my planetarium Stellarium
Tracking , Goto and guiding is excellent
The HEQ5 carries my 6” f6 newt plus imaging and guiding gear ( payload about 9kg )
The EQ6-R carries my 8” f5 newt plus imaging and guiding gear ( payload about 13kg )
Extremely happy with these mounts
I’m only a light weigh guy at 69kg and nearly 60 years old and can easily manage the EQ6-R Mount
Cheers
