Tak FS102 II vs. Intes Micro 615 for planets

Hello guys, I need to make a decision on these 2 scopes. I ordered both 4 months ago and they will both be available within the next 2 weeks. My goal is to get the best airline carry on planetary scope. The Tak FS102II is 24" long and the focuser can be removed to make it easily airline carry on. The Intes Micro M615 is less than 18" long, has a central obsturction of about 30%, should be 1/7 to 1/8 wavefront, and has a built in cooling fan. I was going to get both, and sell the loser, but finances now dictate that I can only get one. Soooooo.. can anyone please help me decide. Have any of you compared scopes of similar designs on planets (especially Jupiter)? Any insight and comments would be greatly appreciated.

The Tak will have higher contrast while the mak will have higher resolution. Planetary moons will be cleaner in the Tak. You'll be able to see more in the mak but you'll have to look harder to find it. The views will be more aesthetically pleasing in the Tak. The Tak will be ready to use much quicker.

hi,

A 6" mak with 30% co should perform as well as a a 4" apo on the planets and be a run away winner on DSO's. Take your pick. Mine would be the 615 unless you want wide fov views.
