Orion 8 inch f5 imaging newtonian telescope with bobs knobs upgrade for collimation, rings and a vixen dovetail paired with a celestron avx mount.  Tested tonight, seetup for an hour tracked mars with no visible movement in the eyepiece for over an hour so works well, I used this setup for imaging both deep sky and planets and have a lot of stuff from this equipment on my youtube channel.  costmeticly, there are some imperfections because I used it a lot.  Mirrors are great on the scope.  On the avx mount one of the cluth levers broke off, but you can adjust the screw with your fingers rather easily with no issues.  Also the plastic cover on the motor assembly does not stay together and is taped.  neither of these things affect the functionality at all.  I have a brand new power supply for the avx.  The setup also comes with an extra hand controller forthe avx.  The finderscope and power tank in the pictures are not included.  There is a 2 inch to 1.25 adapter with the scope, it does not come with any eyepieces.  You need to be close enough to southeast texas to pickup, as I will not ship.  I will do some of the driving up to possibly acouple hours if it is on a day I am off work, otherwise you will have to come to me.  $700 dollars for the setup.  The Ota weighs about 17lbs so, well withing the capacity of the scope.
