Yes and no. SX is not an integrated solution. Only SBIG offer a choice in selecting an internal (self guide) or external (RGH) chip controlled by the same camera head that can feed into their AO...and if you happen to own an AO7 you can guide at around 30Hhz...something SX can't do

Don't get me wrong, FLI, SX etc. and...to a lesser extent Apogee offer good products, but IMHO they have less sophisticated guiding accessories and software.
