garethmob Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 The flex tube is probably the best as its on a dobsonian mount it's very portable and packs away very easily. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cornelius Varley Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 The Heritage 130P will be easier to setup but requires a solid table to stand it on.Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squashnut72 Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 I have gone through the same process and have come out with preferring the Dobsonian mount (Heritage). I think ease of setup tipped it for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
