Hi Stuart,

Thanks for your post.

Yes you right the ASA DDM60 is a very good telescope mount. It tracks very smooth When you never need more than 25 kg load capacity and the meridian flip is no problem it could be my choice to. The G11 has about the same load capacity and a worm gear.

When comparing the Mesu-Mount with the ASA I like to mention the first points that come in my mind.
The ASA mount without meridian flip is the DDM160 and costs 28800,- ex. VAT euro. has a 40 ampere current consumption.

The Mesu-Mount is a mobile high-end telescope mount without meridian flip and a 130kg tested load capacity for 7495,- inc. VAT euro. On location I use a 12V motorcycle battery for a complete weekend operation.

Best regards,
