Hang on, the EQ6pro is rated for 20Kg and a Bintel 12" newt is 20kg, so your pushing it already, so the weight of the guide scope is a concern. IMO an ED80 for guiding will be problimatic. To guide on that rig, IMO, an ST80 would be the go, much lighter (and cheaper) than an ED80. And the QHY5 is the ducks guts for a guide cam, hands down.
