Smile Heq5 Pro, C8 and 80mm side by side setup

Selling my heq5 system as I do not use it. A good setup for someone who wants to go to the next level. Last time used was 6 months ago and before that trying to get the nack of autoguiding but never got into it. Never been on grass or left the house or gone on a adventure to the countryside. Was good in theory but never got seriously into it.

System consists of...
1 Heq5 Pro mount
1 Celestron C8 f10 schmidt cassegrain Orange from the 1980's I believe
1 80mm f4 finder with upgraded microfocuser
1 laserdot 0x magnification finder, have spare battery
1 power supply cable for mount
4 GSO plossl eyepieces 32mm, 25mm, 15mm, 9mm
1 guiding eyepiece, battery needs changing
1 GSO 2x barlow
1 USB to serial converter
1 round level to show degrees
1 GP/USB unit and cables for guiding
1 celestron neximage camera and software
1 Canon 350D camera
1 T Eos adapter (attaches camera to telescope)
2 5kg counterweights
1 2.5 counterweight

Counterweight bar has a extension on it. I could never get collimating correct so would rather see go to a more serious astronomer that would appreciate a complete setup. Will not sell the components seperately.

Local pickup only and location Villawood, Sydney

Price $1300 or Or nearest offer.
