Opinions on Explore Scientific 10" Dob Gen2
in Getting Started Equipment Help and Advice
Posted
What are peoples opinions of this scope? https://www.rothervalleyoptics.co.uk/explore-scientific-ultra-light-10-dobsonian-telescope.html
I was looking at 250px flex-tubes, the earliest ETA I found was February, considered a solid tube and then found out I can't fit it in my boot (time for a roof box maybe?)...
Then considering that the flex-tube and mount would still take up substantial space in the boot I came across the Explore Scientific truss dob. yes greater set up time and collimation but more likely to be able to take it camping in Scotland and other darker parts of the UK.
PS. I am inexperienced but have had a 102mm wide view refractor, and then the 130p heritage dob which I am wanting to upgrade to this. Maybe I should consider something like the Nexstar 6 SLT for my level of casualness.
