  1. Ok! So and then if the target change its location (because I changed my location), the plate solve should work and slew to the correct coordinate! So at the beginning, cartes du ciel use the default coordinate that it have (my house), but the RA/DEC don't change from location to location. So if it's the right position of the object, it's start to image, if it's not then the plate solve "should tell it", and then go to the right position of the object? You also wrote that CDC take it's time and date from the PC, how about the elevation, and all the other stuff? From the default settings that I used last time? And if it's good enough it use it and if not, I will need to change it to the right one? Thanks!!!!!
  2. Hello everyone! I have the EQ6R PRO mount. Yesterday I did in a new location astrophotography, but in the ASCOM I didn't change the time/date/location. I just connected the mount to Cartes du ciel, and then NINA also to Cartes. My question is, why although I didn't change anything in the settings of the new location, Cartes du ciel knew how to find the telescope and bring the telescope to a good slew to the target? How Cartes du ciel knew how to do it without any GPS or anything from the date/time location setting (that I didn't change anything!) PS. Everything went great!, just curious how did it happen Thanks!!!
  3. hi everyone! i have the esprit 120 from sky watcher and i have 2 question! 1) Some glue (i guess...) has dried on my telescope and I want to clean it. the problem is that the glue is very close to the dew shield (and very close to the mirror...). i used wet wipe (with soap and water), and tried to clean all the glue! but i have a question. is the wet wipe with the soap and the water can enter through the dew shield into the mirror and harm the optics there? like you see in the image (the image that shows the telescope itself and not the mirror), the dirt is very close to the dew shield and also to the mirror, so i clean this area with a wet wipe, and also enter the edge of the wet wipe under the dew shied, because its very thin and maybe clean better the dirt... (i also tried to detach the shield but i didnt succeed...) 2) the attached images show some circles on my mirror at the edge of the mirror. what are these circles??? thank you very very much!!!!!
  4. hi everyone! i have the EQ6R PRO mount and my counterweight screws broked… and im searching for a lot of time new one! will this screws will work? how do they attach to the counterweight and to the counterweight bar? are they good? and what kind of screw i need to order? (for the AZEQ6 or NEQ6?), if they are not good, do you have any recommendations? thank you very very much!!!https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32814404861.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.4cf34c4dMhljWh
  5. hello everyone! i have the eq6r pro mount and one of my altitude bolts was ruined... is this bolts will work? https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000160699389.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.0.0.ab645099kw0NvV&algo_pvid=66284a0f-4a4b-4189-93a6-6975830afa19&algo_expid=66284a0f-4a4b-4189-93a6-6975830afa19-40&btsid=0b0a187b15940459514681808e30f4&ws_ab_test=searchweb0_0,searchweb201602_,searchweb201603_ does the eq6r pro have M8 bolts? and 80 millimeters will be enough? thank you so much!!!
  6. well, i have spacers but that came with the camera. i need to check if they can fit in the unit. where i need to screw them? in the place where the spacer now?
  7. success! thank you for all the help!!! A didnt screw to B as you can see. but all the parts are connected good! the only thing is when i want to take the filter out (part c), i need to unscrew it a little bit because the spacer from the telescope Interferes with screwing out... but it looks ok, right? again big thanks to all of you!!!!
  8. michael8554 and MarkAR - thecamera looks like that! i can attach extender to the hole, but that is how the camera is built. and i will try to unscrew the focuser holder and try to attach! Ricochet - wow! its sound right. i will try to connect in the order that you wrote! you think that this spacer should work? https://www.firstlightoptics.com/adapters/astro-essentials-2-inch-t-mount-camera-nosepiece-adapter.html like that michael8554 suggested? E - i really dont know what is that... its really flexible small thing... thank you so much for the big help!!!!!!!
  9. michael8554 - what do you mean by "threaded end" to the focuser? (maybe in image 1 the cirrcle behind?) because i think that i dont know what kind of connections i have (i know that the camera have m42 i think...) you say that i need to disassembly the focuser of my telescope? i didnt understad... and the product that you sent supposed to attach the whole setup tot he telescope? MarkAR - i need to disassembly the focuser of my telescope? it doesn't weird that i need to disassembly my focuser of my telescope in order to attach a filter? why they did like that the unit? thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!
  10. oh, sorry 😅 Which parts don't fit ? - everything! nothing of the parts that i bought fit to the telescope itself Which parts do fit ? - the only thing that fit is the filter chamber to the camera (like the second image) and the circle behind (the one that came with the telescope purchase) to the left circle in the first image (i think is the t-2 adapter?) maybe i didnt bought the correct parts? thanks!!
