Vixen Starbook

Post by Debash »

Dear all

I'm planning to hook-up Vixen Starbook to my GP2 mount. Would like to know your thoughts on the Starbook's performance from your personal experience and how does it compare with Skysensor/ other GOTO systems, in terms of accuracy of pointing/ robustness of the system, user friendliness (idiot-proof?), star alignment system, etc. Would appreciate your comments. cheers

i'm using the starbook...accuracy is very good! keeps my jupiter (last yr when viewing it) in the centre of my 13 mm ep through a f7 refractor in the centre for more than 4hours, then i went to sleep liao.....

very easy to use, 1 star align can activate the starbook already

rough north alignment gives very good tracking accuracy

installation a bit problematic..but can be solved...
