buying parts for a friend to set up a motorised system. going to use a moteck sg2100a and wondering is there much weight difference between the steel and aluminium triax tds 88cm dishes and would the steel dish be ok with the motor,. the aluminium version is about 55 euro while steel one is 30 euro. cheers | ||
