wow why are all of your cg5 so loud mine is so quite and i have a 11 inch sgt on it i just got a cgem for the 11 inch and am puting 6 inch refractor on my cg5 but mine is nowhere near as loud as everyother cg5 ive seen or heard
I have this exact scope and mount. Often these mounts are loud when you first get them due to thick Chinese grease, and the fact they are often not well adjusted in the factory and so the gears bind somewhat. I dismantled mine and serviced it, re-greasing with decent grease, and re-adjusted the tension of the worm gears. Now sounds much smoother/quieter.

Cool, thanks for posting! I just bought the 8" version. Is the slewing really as loud as it sounds in this video? Have you had any problems with the tube sliding off the mount? The two screws that hold the tube make me a little nervous. Seems like if they got even a little loose the tube would come falling down.

have an 8" XLT for my CG5. Its loud yes but you can hardly hear it past 10ft away. Its a nice solid mount.
