Hello, I have a 1984 SC-6 Celestron which is really a Vixen GP. The old wooden tripod was not very stable when automating the GP to new Stepper motors and ASTROEQ. The HAL130SXG is the last tripod compatible with the VIXEN GP. This tripod allows for better stability and height clearance for the OTA.
