Oof, that's quite a bit of cash to spend will take me some time to save up for all that gear. Is there an entry model I can get good results with? Would ioptron skytracker work with k-1 and a small telescope?
An iOptron SmartEQ Pro and a small refractor will work like the Astrotech AT65Q. I've used that combo before. You can also run it with the DFA 150-450.

I took a pic of the Flame and Horsehead region last night. Froze too. 731mm focal length mak-newt that I can't get the friggin' collimation dead on with which is why the weird diffraction spikes. Also a crop of M33 from the same setup.
Impressive!
