Thinking of purchasing the MyT as the first equipment purchase, before I purchase a scope and other equipment...
What is the best way to estimate total equipment weight for imaging?
I'm estimating 42 pounds, but may have been missing something:
| Motor Focuser | ? |
| Camera + Wheel | 4 |
| Guide Camera | 1 |
| OTA | 32 |
| TOTAL | 37+ |
The MyT includes one 20 lb counterweight. Should I purchase a 2nd 20 lb counterweight? Or should I purchase a counterweight shaft extension bar instead? Both? I assume the extra length changes the counterweight depending on the angle.
Thank you.
