how many millimeters is this thread? It's a NexStar SLT mount.
Thanks in advance!

Is there any way to control nexstar slt without the remote?
 

Now I do not have a remote and the ability to buy it separately.

Perhaps there is a way to control this mount without the remote control?
I heard something about the rs 232 cable.

The SLT mount head sits in a bowl with an internal diameter of 125mm at the top.

Why do you want to fit the SLT mount to the 80GTL tripod?

It's me again :). Do you have the same measurements or different?

So that it would at least somehow work, because the head is without a tripod, and buying the tripod separately is a problem.

No idea. Which items do you have? I can measure up the SLT bowl so you can compare it with the 80GTL bowl.

What are you trying to achieve? If the 80GTL mount is built for a lighter scope than the SLT mount,  mounting a scope like a 127mm Mak (the heaviest recommended for the SLT mount and tripod) will not go well.

 

Now I have a 80gtl, but not with me. And in my city there is a slt mount head for sale, but without a tripod. It would be nice if the head fit for gtl even if the tripod is built for a lighter scope than the slt.

Thank you in advance.

Can i use tripod from celestron 80gtl for mount head of nexstar slt?
