will go nicely on a heqpro5 or even better an eq6 - if you have more money then you could go other higher quality mounts like G8 or g11 losmandy or a vixen mount.... you can even get away with a second hand meade Lx75 or celestron mount, though i would recommend getting one of the others. maybe see what you can try out if someone will let you
