Hello guys,
Is this https://www.astroshop.eu/equatorial-with-goto/explore-scientific-mount-iexos-100-pmc-8-wi-fi-goto/p,61886 any good?
I found it second hand for 260 euro and i want to put the OTA from skywatcher heritage 150 p on it, that has a weight of 3.6 kilos. I think i want it because it looks lightweight enough to carry it in a bag along the ota which is important to me because i don't have a car. What do you think ?

I have been using this for a couple of years now, if you plan on getting this one, make sure you get the azimuth adjuster for sure, else it’s a pain.

If you work with asiair or something it reduces the pain, else it’s extremely painful to polar align.

Once that is done, it works pretty well, I have had good success with it.
