SV225 + 6" Newtonian - is it possible ?

Here is the place to talk about all those equipment(Telescope, Mounts, Eyepieces, etc...) you have. Not sure which scope/eyepiece is best for you? Trash it out here!

SV225 + 6" Newtonian - is it possible ?

Moment of truth. SV225 + 6" Newtonian - limited altitude ?

There was little information about this confirmation how it works in action.

Now waiting for ZWO TC40 tripod to come in. Temporarily using this monfrotto 190 to test out, which is not a very bright idea if intend to use long term. Mount shakes slightly during slew. But shaking can be mitigated with practice.

It works ..... Heng ah ..... Money not wasted

New tripod is here. Equivalent of ZWO TC40 tripod.
Have tighten the screws for the 2 swiveling parts and the jerking and wobbling has reduced dramatically.
Overall am very satisfied with this setup.
