Paul,
If the HEQ5pro has power, it will allow non GOTO functionality. You can certainly just rough polar align and start observing...
I changed over from a Meade 12" Lx200 to Celestron. Initially the C9.25 which I found fitted well with the HEQ5pro mount.
More recently I've gone for a C11 on a NEQ6pro mount for spectroscopy.
Just de-fork the C9.25 OTA, fit a dovetail and put it on a HEQ5pro mount - a marriage made in heaven.
