Yes, you created a bit of nightmare there. Hate to say it, after youve spent so much money, but side-by-side ive found creates a differential flex hell, and you may find the extra weight of the mounting plates and weird counterbalances are half the total load.
If you just stripped the plates off and mounted the various tubes directly to the main OTA, youd save a lot of weight and reduce flexure.
The guide scope doesnt look stable all all on the stalk, hard mount it to the OTA, such a short FL will make it very sensitive to movement.
