I just wondering the difference in quality on the these two mounts? Any thoughts. Appreciate your insight.
Which is better mount Losmandy G-11 or Losmandy SVM-HST?

Isn't the SVM-HST the high-torque servo motor?
The G11 is a fine mount.

You may want to ask the mods to move this to the mounts forum.

I don't have the high torque motors and my G11 tracks fine for the most part. Either way you will have to tinker around with the mount to get it working good. I have guided as low as .3" after tuning and such.
