This is the same decision that is plaguing me! OAG or piggy back scope?
With an OAG, (please correct me if im wrong) you can only use a small percentage of the field of view to find a star to guide with?

Where as a piggyback scope you will have a greater number of usable stars to guide with?

Here are 3 videos i watched, that helped explain a lot!
