I think it’s interesting that AP has gone from mostly larger scopes (5 to 7 inch, f8 to f12) and mounts that were more portable (400, 600, 800), to more portable scopes (faster, 92, 110, 130) and larger mounts (Mach 2, 1100, 1600). There are, of course, many factors behind those changes that make sense. But at a superficial level, it seems counterintuitive, in comparison to mass market companies that try to sell complete packages. It says something about the AP customer base and the complexity of their applications of the products.
