New Sky-Watcher Flextube Dobs

We finally get some pictures of the new Synta aka Sky-Watcher truss/retractable dobs.

Sky-Watcher Flextube 12"

Sky-Watcher Flextube 10"

Sky-Watcher Flextube 8"

I think there are lots of questions about stability, durability, and ability to keep collimation. The "Flextube" name doesn't inspire a lot of confidence.

I'd like to see an Orion version with Intelliscope COL, dual-speed Crayford, 9x50 RACI, and light shroud.
