Knowing nothing about the skyportal app I had a quick search and found that it's an app that works with celestron motorised mounts. Here is a link to the FLO page with for wifi device,

Towards the bottom of the page there is a list of compatible goto mounts. There are quite a range of other brand of goto mounts so first step would be to have a good look through the flo website to see whats out there. All the best

 

Hi all, is the anyway I can connect my celestron Explorascope 114AZ to WiFi so that I can use sky portal app with my telescope 🔭? Many thanks

Meant to say, it's well worth getting a moon map. This crater is one of my favourites, Gassendi, the small crater on the side of it is from memory 60km across so it gives a very good perspective of the size of things.

I will definitely get one many thanks 

Hi, my name is Vince, I'm 55 and have recently purchased a celestron Explorascope 114AZ (from Argos) and also got a 5" digital eyepiece from temu.  I used it last night to take pics of the moon
