200p finder scope on a 130p goto

[stuffedhaggis]

Guys

A few months ago I upgraded yhe finder scope on my explorer 200p.

The bought me a 130p az goto for xmas as my new portable scope.

Would the old finder from the 200p be ok mount on the 130. Just thinking weight for the az mount ??

Any input would be great .

The 130 is already undermounted but, if the finder helps you find stuff more easily, that will easily outweigh the marginal weight increase.

But will it more likely damage the moters on the az mount ?

Should be OK if you balance it (it is a dovetail bar mounting, isn't it?), but check with the supplier first to be safe.
