Hi guys.

Im thinking about buying an 10" LX200 and was just wondering how do you pick an appropriate guidescope for this scope?
I have a 70mm refracting telescope with a FL of 900mm, but with the LX's focal length of 2600mm, im thinking this will be entirely inappropriate, how can i remedy this, with a Barlow perhaps , or is the 70mm just going to be too small now to put a Barlow in ?

Also, my mount is advertised at being able to carry 26Kg's, does this include the counter-weights ?

Thanks for your help guys
