Hi akdwived I will certainly post pic of the modification......and such has to go through koko. Also,l hope to use this platform to show my mod of 1)the altz 3 mount so that it can swing to a higher angle without slipping occur 2)the takahashi ta..gu mount.,making it more steady. 3)converting a equ...

interesting.. show us some pictures and drawings. is the carlton alt az mount a top loading mount ratther than sideways like the giro, evo or azmp.

I think all EQ setups in singapore have that problem because of our latitude. But since SCT is usually back heavy, the C6 should still work. I have seen someone building a custom wedge for C8. you may want to try that. its a $200 investment.. but yes if you have budget, a dedicated EQ platform will ...

Hi all

Is Alvin still active on the forum.. his last few posts are from 2018 and I was particularly interested in a berlebach uni tripod and a omegon bino that he had posted.

cheers

But based on my experience of Fujinon 7x50, these are not handholdable for long time. a 8x42/50/56 are easier to hand hold. I already have a heavier bino 20x60 for tripod mounted view...

Interested in badder max right binoviewer, moonlight focuser and lunt solar scope

yes.. but you should be able to manually point it to sky, take a picture and plate solve it. once you have desired frame, you should also be able to guide it using a guidescope and guidecame.

did you check red-dot finder's battery.. there is very little in red-dot finder to get spoilt. You could still run nexstar SE mounts via batteries until you get your new powertank. Just buy rechargeable batteries and put them in and it should work. My personal principle is to not touch the scope cor...

I tried stellarmate on my raspberri pi 4.. it works well with my az gti. it does detect canon eos rp and zwo asi462mc. need to start using the setup once the cloud clears up.
