ES ED127 on Orion Atlas


Recommended Posts

Does anyone know if the following setup will have any issues for AP on a Orion Atlas and homemade pier?

ES ED127 W/ stock focuser and rings. I might be upgrading to a Moonlite Focuser

Atik 314E

Orion Miniguider Package

I know the mount is rated for 40lbs and for AP you only want to go half of that, but my OTA is already pushing 21lbs. Does anyone see any possible issues with the weight? I estimate everything coming it at maybe 30lbs. I had purchased the Atlas with no intention of upgrading my ED80 any time soon, then I got offered the ES 127 at what i thought to be a good deal  (1300 shipped) so I jumped on it. Does anyone see any possible issues?

Thanks for reading

David
