yeah thanks just asked the seller it is only 10mm ceiling to projector in the horizontal and no cable managment.
starting to think i might just be better of with a wall mount / shelf.
I need to know how badly tilt affects the image i might just have to try holding mine up and tilting it at different angles and see what happens.
thanks anyway.

I have a vogels mount.
The PQ is not afected at all even with a tad of keystone, there is no degredation on PQ.
I prefer it on the ceiling as its just neater, out the way and away from your ears for any fan noise.
I was going for a shelf but decided it would look awful stuck about 400mm out from my wall.
