Thank you for the hint Greg. I was hoping that Baby Q would be a nice match for my QSi690 giving me a wider field and I believed Tak telescopes are of the rare type 'buy it and enjoy using it as is without needing to upgrade the focuser, rings, flattener etc'.

My current telescope gives me 1.34 arcsec per pixel with a reducer and 1.09 arcsec per pixel without, and it would be nice to have additionally a quality refractor with a built-in flattener that would allow for around 2.5 arcsec per pixel for a wider field.

FSQ106 with a reducer sounds very good (apart from the cost), but F3.6 might be a bit of a challenge, in particular that I need to use 3nm filters.

Maybe WO -Star 71mm would be a cheaper and perhaps a reasonable alternative?
