today i spent the day connecting it all up to the pc to test that it all works.
a little bit of mucking about with drivers etc, then constantly losing connection to the camera (which turned out to be the long 5mtr usb cable from the powered usb hub.. As soon as i removed that and put a 3mtr cable in its place it all worked perfectly.
The mount with the zwo carbon tripod and zwo pier weight next to nothing as a hole, and can handle that c925 with ease by the looks of things. At no point did it look like the tripod was unstable, but i agree, i wouldnt use it for very long imaging sessions in a windy environment.
I now need to just clean up the cables a bit and work out how to route everything neatly and looking forward to getting it out in the field
Here it is in the shed
