Hey I’m 15 years old and I’ve just got a 2nd hand EQ6R it’s just over a year old and my guiding is just getting going. My RA is acting incredibly awful with a graph which is incredibly terrible. I’m also unsure of the best guiding settings to use? My RA is at around 135” and my DEC is around 1.8” I’m unsure why it’s acting so awfully. Thanks guys

Just managed to get myself a EQ6-R Pro for just £900 with an iPolar, guy selling all his gear, nice chap and yeah. Great pull

Thanks matey

I know it’s out haha, this was a year ago now, oh how time flies, I’ve moved up now, 200PDS and will be getting a HEQ5 Pro

It makes me feel so small when I see an image on the back of my camera of 2 galaxies then I look up to where I’m pointed and just emptiness with stars. It’s amazing. This shot is so good

I’ve had 4 clear nights this week, I got a 200PDS for Christmas and no mount haha, saving up for a mount now.

Here’s a shot I got with no tripod in 2021 June

Here’s a shot I got of a skywatcher heritage 130p with a Canon 1200D

Here’s a shot I took of Jupiter with my phone on a heritage 130p

Here’s a shot I got of Saturn through a Heritage 130P

Here’s a recent shot I took of these 3 galaxies.

Beautiful image!

This is absolutely insane, I will be imaging it when I get my setup up and running!

Anyone use a 200PDS on a HEQ5 pro? If so what are your thoughts?

very nice
