Hi,

Someone please correct me if I am wrong but I think the Orion IS a rebadged QHY5. One of the benefits of this is that it doesn't need a GPUSB unit as it plugs directly into the ST4 compatible guide port of the mount.

If the choice was between the QHY 5 and the Orion I would get the QHY 5 as it is cheaper, also there are quite a few threads around here where people claim good success with the unit.
