Alex. you're on the right track, but I reckon you're thinking a bit small. RCOS do make bigger scopes, and with $30M to play will they wouldn't be that painful.

The property you were planning on putting it on would be more expensive.

500Km from populated space and over 800m in Au? You'll need an airstrip and somthing nice to fly. A Pilatus PC-12 NG maybe? If you got bored with it, the RFDS can always use another plane.

And something "portable" to take to the Pony Club/Katoomba/etc. Say a 32" SDM with all the trimmings.
