The other thing is having a good motor focuser

Apologies if that came out arrogant. I appreciate everybody's input as I'm putting together a list that I want to purchase from the very beginning.


Having said that however I can't see me purchasing the Hyperstar system with the rest of my gear. I think that might be a purchase in the far future.


The reason I'm against the RASA as a first scope is I'd like to also have the option of a quick observing session. At the moment I'm leaning towards the 925 Edhge HD and the 0.7 reducer - to begin with
