Side by side mounting on a GEM
What are the balance problems of mounting two scopes side by side on an equatorial mount. I would like to mount my Ed 80 with my c9.25 side by side as it would be more convenient. What are the balance problems with this configuration? will it balance in all orientations of the mount?
I have two gso mounting pucks and thought I might construct a saddle mount using them and a vixen dovetail bar , it may not be sturdy enough for long exposure but should be OK for visual and unguided exposures.
