Az mount for C925

[borderfin]

Any advice on an Az mount for a C925 for visual for planetary and lunar - at present looking between a SkyTee 2 and possibly an i optron mini tower pro.  However I read of some problems with jammed clutches on the mini tower and a few other issues.  Has anyone any advice please

I would think that it would need a decent EQ mount to make it usable and do it justice , at 2350mm f/l and 20lb in weight it would be pretty unfriendly otherwise ...

An AZ mount would be good for eyepiece position over an EQ mount, but you definately need slo mo controls at that focal length and the Skytee has this. It should take the weight ok with a decent tripod also

How about an AZEQ6? I agree, better to have enough load capacity and tracking/goto.

Thanks, anyone any experience of the mini tower pro?

Another vote for the AZEQ6. Use it in AZ mode or EQ mode for photography

Skytee II on AES portable pier, this has had a 10"SNT on it! Just put ADM mounts on to make sure the scope is secure!
