  1. Do I need to update my skyalign handset that came with the scope ? Before I start observing , I’m sure I’ve read somewhere that I do need to 🤔
  2. Cool cheers sounds like it’s a level up from sky align that comes with the scope but don’t think I’ll bother for a while
  3. I’m thinking more between session of use at home if the weather is bad , I’m I ok to keep it all set up permanently at home ?
  4. Just want to make sure that the mount can take the weight and the gears/motars won’t get damaged
  5. I’ll be keep it in door ..just want know if I should dismantle after each session that’s all
  6. Am I ok keeping the OTA and mount set up or should I take it all down and store away when not in use ?
  7. Hi all I’m a newbie trying to get my head around my new Nexstar 8se i have heard starsense is a better version of sky align and that starry night is a planetarium package like sky safari but could some one explain CWPI ... I’m I right I’m saying g it’s laptop incorrectly control of your mount ??
  8. Hi, Just wondering why there is no Lancashire group on here and if we could start one up !
  9. So what’s the difference between that and starry night and skyalign skyalign is what I use on the mount start night if planetarium software what’s CWPI ? Do I need it and if so is instead of Sky align
  10. Right! I see so it’s a bit like sky safari ! cheers
  11. Hi could anyone explain what it is , do I download this to a laptop ? Is it a compliment to the skyalign I have with my 8SE?
  12. Sounds like the HEQ5 PRO Go-To is loss the better future proof buy for dso and planetary photography
  13. The Sky-Watcher HEQ5 PRO Go-To has been recommended to me also today - worth a look
  14. Any suggestions as to an alternative set up bearing in mind it’s for casual photography use - I use my SE mostly for back garden observing- I might even just use a camera in that set up tbh
  15. Like the look of this mount as an upgrade from the SE I have - question I have is ... would my Nexstar SCT 8” fit or do I need an extra something to connect them ?
