Question Askar 65phq or Founder Optics fot86

Looking at both these scopes for my last scope purchase. Getting on in years so would like some help.
I'm looking at the 65phq because it's cutting out all the trouble on setting up back focus and had purchased one second hand unused but the focuser wasn't working right (sent it back) and when asked the question about it on their facebook page it would appear that their focuser wasn't that good, so has anyone got one of these and what is your views on them.
The fot86 looks to be very well made but the only reviews are on the larger scope they do. I know I'll still have the job of back focus but the quality looks a lot better. Again, has anyone got one and what do you think of it.
I have the WO Z61ii + Flattener + asi533mc pro and will be selling it and getting one of these to replace it. Mainly for photography but would like the option to view as well.
Thanks for any feedback.
