Have a C5+ which I would like to use with a ioptron 8300. How secure is the scope holder: The only thing I see that is holding the scope in place is a large screw. Any ideas on more security. The company says that it will hold a 25 pound payload--one screw makes me nervous.

The Mini Tower may have problems, but the screw you are referring to is not one of them. As long as it is tightened securely, it is not a problem.
