This is great news. It seems like large aperture imaging is becoming way more affordable. A 20 inch RC would be awesome with even a decent figured mirror. No wonder RCOS shut down. That sort of competition would make it impossible to compete.

Even if the focuser etc is poor it would be worth while to get one and add the high quality extras like FLI Atlas focuser, solid tube adapters, and perhaps replace the secondary spider if needed and perhaps add some baffles and flock it.

Do they sell flatteners/correctors? Then again I bet a Tak flattener would work anyway and an APM reducer would also probably work.
