  1. It’s heavier. Any home made trick?
  2. Hello, when weight in that position telescope is heavier but when adding the second weight in any position, weights are heavier. Can’t fin the middle point!
  3. Thanks Bad day in Yorkshire. Like buying a PlayStation with no electricity at home..... Looks gorgeous anyway......
  4. Sorry, there’s no manual for rookies.... ive trying to put the eyepiece straight to telescope but it seems it needs an adaptor.... :)) Now I’m getting that black circle in the middle. Is that normal?
  5. So whats that I’m pointing it for?
  6. Just got the 130pds. It’s fitted ok or need a screw in the hole? Didn’t come with any thanks
  7. its curious that someone from Texas helped me!!!!! h
  8. I’m kidding. I want a 130p ds and is out of stock in all shops. anybody wants to open with me a factory to produce cheap telescopes? Seems a good idea!
  9. thanks, but are you happy pollaris is in the telescope not in the polaroscope?
  10. I have the tripod levelled and I think( almost sure that I put pollaris in the scope), I have no polarscope and don't want to spend 100 pound in one as my next gadget is an asiair pro who can do this. Anyways.... I tell to go to vega and the scope goes in the direction but is not in the eyepiece and I have to loose the clutches and find it( manual says that should be done with the arrow keys for more accuracy) is that correct? I can see polaris from the garden and the scope look pointing to it, ant the app for polar aligns says that's is there....so im quite sure its alligened to Polaris BUT in the telescope, not in any Polarsocope( not sure if any difference) so im quite disappointed that when I tell to go to Vega, is not in the eyepiece......
  11. More ...problems? i didn't know it doesn’t come with polariscope....my fault, yes, but if need to be aligned, I think should come with one......!!!! anyway... I put Polaris in the telescope eyepiece and tell him to allign to Artur us. The telescope goes in the direction of the star but NO appears in the 25 mm eyepiece......(quite far, to be honest) Do u need a polariscope yes or yes? If Polaris in eyepiece shouldn’t at least point close to Arcturus? getting desperate. Because I’m new in astronomy, at the moment I blame myself, but beginning to think if it’s working ok.....
  12. I did. Twenty something minutes on 25 mm eyepiece. After it goes up
  13. I thought that a 1000 pound tripod would track the moon for hours with no problem. But if that is normal....that’s ok!
  14. Hello, after reading lots of posts, I decided to go for the skywatcher az eq5 gt. bought it in flo. first, the mount i got is this one. That’s the one, isn’t it? Because it’s says pro but I paid for the az eq 5 gt. Manual is for az eq5 gt. but tripod says pro. Is this correct? Second. After 20 min,i loose tracking of the moon. I’m using a 25 mm eyepiece. I used moon tracking. Trípode Leveled and battery fully charged. Is that normal? Loosing the moon in 20 min? How is going to follow deeps sky objects? Probably I’m doing something wrong because it has no sense. Help. Thanks
  15. Hello, thinking of a telescope a eyepiece, a flattener and a camera. is scope-flattener -eyepiece-camera? if using flattener , cant be used eyepiecE? camera is straight to scope and can’t be used eyepiece? bit lost,thanks
  16. And yes, I’ll try some photo with my canon, but wasn’t very worried if the stars look like watermelons..... :))
  17. Thanks for the answers. Is it gonna need to be collimated being NEW? Sound that you’re buying something that’s not new! It’s something I want thinking about buying it now.....
  18. Hi, I’m about getting the 130pds, and was wondering if I should get any extra. I know that some would say ,wait and see what you need, but I see it comes only with a 28mm, should I get a 5 or 8 mm to begin with? I’m completely new in hobby, but 50 pounds more in the shop basket is not a problem thanks
  19. How do you power it? do you use it with iPad? is it easy to set? thanks
  20. Interested in this mount. Nice video in YouTube explaining how it works, but seems not very common. People always speak about the eq version but not this one that can be used in both systems. as asked before? Anyone with it? Would love to hear about it thanks
  21. If you have an skywatcher mount and you want to connect to ipad and use skysafari... are both different product but works the same?
