Hi Grahame,
Just be careful, I'm having quite a time trying to get the collimation right, nothing like a big sensor to show it up.
Do you have an RC10C? It's a great scope, but (probably like any corrected RC) the back focus is critical. You need to make sure that the CCD is right near the 6" for this scope, or the big CCD also picks up some very weird stuff.
I can't use the MOAG with this system anymore as that pushes the CCD out to closer to 9" and all the peripheral stars are elongated like the camera was rotating. I'm awaiting a new set of adapters so I can try to incorporate it again.
Cheers
Stuart
