Re: CGEM modified counterweight shaft

Hi coper4,
I am considering buying a CGEM with an 11" OTA, but have been reading some reports of bugs some people have had to contend with.
I had heard that the shaft was short, but this is the first time I've heard that someone could not get it balanced. Are you adding extras to the OTA that make it too heavy like a guidescope for example?
I'm really wondering if it's worth buying the 11" SCT on a CGEM if I have to buy separate pieces of equipment to use on a mount that should have had these potential problems worked out well ahead of time...
Thanks.
