Be kind.

I’m a total novice, and turned to lunar as I have had lot of alignment problems with my starsense. So these were aligned and tracked manually.

Quite poor I know. I only have a MacBook Pro and the free Zwo software.

I have a telescope for sale but not sure where to post.

Thanks guys.

I should have said I’m using a 2018 MacBook  Pro .

Hi, does anyone have first hand experience of these  usb3.0 active extension cables from Lindy?

Will my Zwo Asi224mc operate at the full usb 3.0 speed?

Thanks Onikkinen, I’ve just ordered a new Lindy adapter that claims to be usb3.1 compliant. 

Hi,  I have an ASI224MC connected to my 2018 MacBook Pro 15” by a usb b adapter to usb c cable. But ASIcap is showing the connection as USB 2.

Does anyone have any idea why this would be?

Hi, chaps saw this kit on eBay.

search for Astronomical Telescope Electric Focusing Support Automatic Focusing S8180.

Hi, does anyone here have any experience of using a Baader flip mirror mk2 with a skymax127?

I like the Popular Astronomy magazine that comes with membership. It just has NO hype what so ever and is best for kids too.

cv5?

I am looking for the best UK astronomy mag.

 I notice your location is cv5,  where is that?

I have a Skymax 127 and was considering purchasing a ZWO ASI 224MC or the 385MC. I know the Skymax isn’t the ideal scope for imaging but are decent images possible with this setup?

So…..I have exactly the same question, what was the conclusion?
