I'd go with just doing the mount. If you are still unhappy with results you can unload some of the other bits to help fund an OTA. HEQ5Pro SynScan or add a few dollars of your own and EQ6Pro SynScan. When I find out how much I'm getting back I hope to be after a new mount.

The motorised ones save the whole rig bouncing around after you adjust the focus. I reckon mine was worth the extra dollars.
