WO FLT110 with Large Format Moonlite focuser

This WO FLT110 is a delightful scope but I have another at the same FL and this one is just not getting used enough to justify keeping it.

I replaced the original WO DDG focuser which was just rubbish for imaging. The replacement is a beautiful Moonlite Large Format 2.5" with their micro-stepper motor and controller. This is ideal for people with larger imaging sensors. It includes a flange for the WO FLT110 of course. These cost about US$95 alone.
The current cost of the focuser from the US is about $880 plus post.

The scope has a set of WO rings and comes in it's own very solid flame-red aliminium box and is double-boxed for shipping.

I'll post some images shortly including some I have taken with this scope.

Asking A$2650 plus shipping.
