Hey guys,
Seeing as the weekly (if not monthly) forecast was for cloudy weather, I figured I probably wouldn't hurt anyone's seeing by getting some new equipment!
So, I am now the proud owner of a brand new (2nd hand
) 10" GSO Dob! Sure is bigger than I imagined it would be. Makes my 5" look like a baby!!
My question is, "Can I mount this on my HEQ5"? I read somewhere that a good limit on the HEQ5 was 15kg, and the 10" OTA weighs around 13Kg...without EPs or the finder. Would I be overloading the mount?
Not a biggy, because I'll be using the 10" as a visual scope for now, but just wondering about upgrades...
