Do you mind advising where you had your mount hyper tuned, the only place I know of is in Perth and they never replied to my emails
Im assuming to achieve 0.1 arc sec your payload would be quite light too , I’m carrying 10kg and 14kg respectively on these mounts with guiding around 0.50 to 0.60 arc sec on good nights
Thanks

Its with my C8 and imaging gear, around 6kg for the OTA and another 1kg or 2 in ancillary bits. I would estimate 7-8kg. So you're right, it is relatively light for the 20kg capacity of the EQ6-R.
The hypertune was done by the previous owner, he was indeed from Perth. I suspect it was done at the place you are referring to. Happy to go and contact him and get you more details.
