Will the M-UNO be able to hold and balance the Celestron 11 inch RASA optical tube, along with CCD camera and a small guide scope piggy-backed on top?

Dear JimG

The Celestron 11 inch RASA may be out of range for the M-uno mount.

For this kind of telescope the M-due mount could be required.

Best regards

Just an FYI, I am using an older CGE 1100 (11 inch SCT, which is 22.5" long) on my M-uno mount with no real issues. I do have two of the 1.4 Kg counterweights, with the extender to balance. This includes as a 60mm guide, guide camera, scope and Canon DSLR camera.
