Hi Vacuum I have now sold heq5 pro but not pulled the trigger on the AZ-GTI so cannot compare . The heq5 pro was not an easy setup for me as I did not use it very much so never got it setup quickly. Even though I got it set up to remote view with the raspberry pi and wireless and wired usb/ethernet and stellerium, I found I spent more time setting up the peripherals than viewing. As a compact mount the HEQ5 and tripod is definatly NOT, but is very stable for bigger payloads.

thanks jadcx i have a SW ed102 and canon 100-400mk2 with zwo120 and 7d mk2 so will be looking for the full astro package but need to sell the heq5 pro first as cash is a bit tight at the moment.

cheers Knobby I think I will be going that way and will of course buy from FLO Think I will give them a ring when I sell my HEQ5PRO and see what other bits like EQ adapter I will need

Hi thinking of selling my heq5pro and using either a SkyWatcher AZ-GTi WiFi GoTo Alt-Azimuth Mount Head with an eq adapter or sky adventurer. As I find I dont have the time to get it all setup, so less inclined to make the effort. Has anybody gone that route and regretted it ? I keep finding excuses not to go out on a clear night and thought a less complicated setup would help me. I am a person who likes getting set up and going indoors so everything is setup on the computer. Looking forward to the replies (if any lol) muddy (dave)
