Yes.

You can make your own, or recycle parts from a different mount, but having a counterweight just keeps everything from having any danger of toppling over.

Mount the ASI Air on top of the scope and have those cables as neat as possible, if you have a cable snag up with a strainwave mount it will happily destroy it and anything it is connected to without mercy!
