RE payloads for AM5

I have a Takahashi E180, Canon RA DSLR, a 60mil g/s and a guide cam with an all up weight of 19kgs. On the Dec shaft is is 2 x 5kg weights.

This incredible little mount shows no sign of hauling this mass. RA tracking is so good, near to flatlines in PHD2 graph is generally the norm.

Even at 20kgs, you are still wishing the safety fence of the AN5's max. payload.
