What a great suggestion, Andrew!
The kit you describe would be very effective operating in remote telescope-mode.
The ODK 16 is a very multipurpose scope and you look to have focussing sorted out: stability of focus is an important factor in remote operation.
Am sure there are several BAA members who would be seriously interested in your proposal – I can’t speak for the Association but would be happy to discuss with you and others offline.
Clear skies,
