nothing a little bit of weight up the front couldn't balance out losmandy do a 2d system for that. A friend of mine on his VC200L has to do the same thing or the balance point would be under the focuser.
Really the 3" doesn't matter if it looks big. it works well!
and allows alot of other practical things. Though at the end of the day its not a issue as the RC8 has a small visual back that would not accept the 3" and i think it would struggle with the 2.5" and a 2" focuser is small now days with the size of sensors avalible.!
