Any luck?

anybody manage to solve this problem?

Thanks @Ags 😀

So finally I have decide to take up the Astro Fi 6 inch so far this is what I have experience :- 1. The weight of the OTA is around 3.6Kg with all complete eyepiece, @Ags was right not sure why Celestron website state it is 2.17kg 2. The mount is rather on the lightweight side 3. WiFi is working fine for me so far (yet to fully test the alignment the sky are still cloudy) as I do see people complaining about it but so far mine is connected well with Safari Pro and Celestron Apps. Probably this would help another person who are stuck in deciding.

Thank you @Ags 😁

Hi @Ags just wanted to know the AZ-GTi that you are using, are you using it for Alt-Azimuth or did you converted it to EQ. Thanks in advance

@Philip R thanks for making this topic go 😁

Hi @ollypenrice Ok let say just for viewing as a whole and maybe little imaging but I don't expect that kind of imaging that I see online just something that I would just keep for myself so with this which would you suggest or recommend the Astro Fi 6" or 127Mak Az-GTI

@Stu1smartcookie true.... ermmmmm

Hi @Louis D but if not mistaken the 2" does not come with the AZ-GTI and if you buy the OTA which has 2" it is weight more than what the AZ-GTI can carry

True and couldn't really see a lot of people using or giving review on youtube so not that easy to decide but again it is C6. Thanks @Ags

Hahaha and that is why deciding it making it a bit difficult. Thank you very much @Stu1smartcookie really appreciate your input do tell if you have more that would be easier for me to decide 😁

@Stu1smartcookie same as what I have read but... here the Astro Fi C6 is almost similar price with AZ-GTi with Mak 127mm, Astro Fi 6 is versatile and it is 6 inch but has a bad mount and not easy to align (from what I read) Mak 127mm good for planet not so good for DSO but the AZ-GTI mount is good ,easy to use , can convert it to Eq mount So now I'm torn between which to choose 🤯

Thanks @Philip R for tagging @Ags

Hi @Ags thank you was thinking of this as well getting Astro Fi C6 and AZ-GTI but would be too expansive for me since there no used one here (at least no one is selling it) I heard that the mount on the Astro Fi C6 not suited for it and I see complains about not be able to align it do you have any experience on the mount?

Thank you for your reply @Philip R and the warm welcome 😁 but could you do me a favor from this youtube , does this Astro Fi 6 look smaller comparing to your C6? Cause read it online that it is much lighter (around 2.3kg ). Thanks in advance 😁

Same here still waiting for someone to reply on this 😁
