Doug,

One more thought regarding your decision. The C925 fits the Atlas perfectly and can be used with the stock set of counterweights (2 - 11 pounders).

If you go with the C11, you will need an extra 11 pound counterweight to balance the OTA. The Atlas is perfectly fine with this extra CW and will balance the load perfectly. It's just something else you have to buy.

More food for thought.
