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!
Ok..if you think setting up a truss tube is too much effort for you, or even the teleport looks too much of a task for you, how about getting a pop-up scope??
Although it looks like the renmants of a RSD2, but it does actually work! It sort of just unturn the few flexible rings around it then lock it then wa-la! Sturdy stuff! why dun u bring it and we can investigate it further???

The gentle light of a distant galaxy
must needs pour into mine eye.
Or i shall with bent and turned,
fall me down, distraught..To die.

I wonder how often can you turn and unturn this thing before it becomes flimsy.
I will be amazed if this scope gives the same strength and stability like the conventional truss tubes.
i have no doubts abt the stability, but prices seem a little bit on the higher side.
the material is carbon fiber, should be strong and stable (and light). the structure without mirrors costs US$800. maybe can ask cc to bring one to singapore? (it's a 10" airline carry-on btw)
