Im thinking of putting my mount in better skies i had to move house and it will be a while until i get another house looking at the prices for spain crazy money each month my mount needs to get more use any ideas welcome

Im back after giving them misery these mounts are reeally starting to lash out now 2-3 a month on facebook they are for real very similar to Mesu

I just had to bro i couldn't resist it after i found this image on Facebook 😂

I ordered an OGEM from JTW Astronomy this EQ6R-Pro should tie me over until i get my permanent observatory up and running from JTW.

I really hope the OGEM works out lets hope UK has its very own English Planewave Instruments style company starts off small then turns into a power house Astronomy company remember Planewave Instruments was nothing in 2008 they had one EQ mount Ascension 200 and 20 CDK and many people wanting their money back.

OK lets get back to astronomy 😂

I come from working class family and poverty but today my own family and mother and father and seven brothers and sisters are lower middle class in UK we would be probably be middle class as Ireland is much wealthier that England by living standard

I have three children im just gone 40 this is why i got it now cause i knew later on i would be able too with 11 year old 7 and 4

The mount you have to see it to believe it the adjustment knobs are so easy to turn yet very strong not like Ioptron pound shop quality where if you tighten them too much you know they could snap off and you have to tighten them with allen key to keep alignment the gears i have it set to 10 arc second that's medium speed 😂 20 arc seconds is just insane and you can put 90-100 lbs of scope on you would still get 35-45 mins unguided subs if well-balanced i still believe on ASA DDM85 is a match for 10 Micron as for all the rest it crushes all before it yet ASA DDM85 only slews at 13 arc second this is why i just said no dont give in the MX+ is great but the 1100 GTO great but and once they know you have the money they are all hounding you with emails it was a strange feeling having that power 😂

Enjoy

I know but their all closed no where is open

Yes drilling and tapping if you can if you can they gave no nuts with them they only gave me four M6 bolts with no nuts to tighten them I need 8 holes drilled 4 holds the adapter onto the pier the other 4 hold the mount down.

Its a Altair Astro pier plate im not buying another pier for a 10 Micron GM2000 HPS II mount i have the pier plate adapter

As someone who just got my final dream mount that i used to dream about having the 10 Micron GM2000 HPS II this week i want to see this OGEM mount be a massive success if this is really the final mount it looks very nice just like the MESU mount

I have an old altar astro pier will it fit or will i have to drill holes which i dont want to do and their is no one to do it anyway i have ordered it already from Telescope Service i got the mount from Robtics in Holland

And the other two little guys are they advertisers too one with 646 subscribers and the other with 4.55K subscribers and the thousands of others DSLR are a thing of the past in Astronomy no matter how much they try to spice it up im not saying you cant take nice images with them but they are much harder to get that image for me and many many others colour mottle and noise is just too much to bair ''He is a advertiser'' what about now 😂

I have to get this CCD im thinking is it worth selling my ASI294mc Pro even if its only six months old ill only get around 850 Euro for it

Thats a cracker insane detail

Ah i think it worked well 😂

Is your ASI294 a Pro aka cooled CCD you have hot pixels

Trevor never went back he only uses DSLR with travel scopes or when he go,s on holiday

Of course its cheaper but are the images better everyone knows the answer NO on every astronomy forum on facebook ASI Altair Astro etc pages all you see is people showing their new off their new ASI183MC-Pro or ASI533MC-Pro or ASI294MC-Pro all are coming from DSLR cameras like down below all said they wont go back after seeing the difference.
