gday john
if you are gunna go for an eq mount yuo'd be better off with a heq5 than a eq5, its just that much sturdier and still light enough to lug around... well thats what i did anyhow
set up time isnt too bad but generally its 3 trips for me: mount; weights and battery; ota... this is without linking it all up to a laptop mind you
still i am happy with my mount and the goto is good
