umm, thats all wrong  , a 16" scope is way heavier than 10', and probably has a longer FL, imaging/guideing hell, the EQ6 wont take that  .
Stick with viewing with a 16" dob, WAY less money  |
Sorry mate - I was referring to the magnifications I am/will be using (low power) when observing which makes tracking less important than if I was using higher mags (on planets for example).
I just worry that for visual use only, spending another ~$2k on a 10" scope still only leaves me with a 10" scope
When I bought the 10" it was all that I could fit in my vehicle but things have changed now and I can transport a larger dob without issue.
If I get the Argo Navis on my 10", I'll need to purchase completely new encoders/mounting hardware if I upgrade to a larger scope correct? Is only the handset transferable?
Thanks for the advice guys, it's great to get your opinions on this
