8 " GSO RC Tube Balance

Decided to fit a Losmandy c'weight to my 8" RC as the OTA is very back heavy. The pics say it all, with a 35mm Pan and 2" diagonal there is a fair bit of overhanging weight but the the balance is perfect now. Works just as well on an eq mount as well. Just using the RC for visual at the moment and surprisingly is an accomplished performer.
