stinky

Hi ive just added a filter to my 30mm ES 82 series and it now touches the glass inside the diagonal. Is that right? The lens now doesn’t go full depth into the diagonal

I don’t think I unscrewed it.... when you say unscrew do you mean totally remove? Or even a slight rotation

Thanks for this! Very helpful i have ended up with loads of bits but loving it. Loving just look at big open spaces that seem black to my eye by through the scope it’s full of stars! trying to catch a nebula sometime to see the shades of grey but not managed it yet.

Once it’s calibrated it works fine when I tell it to take me from star to star it’s perfect which makes me think I have it calibrated and aligned all good. But as soon as I say Venus it misses the time and date is correct I’ll check the location isnt off

In the end I managed to screw the diagonal directly to the back of the scope. (After I read the instructions ha) would I be better with the extra length the visual back would give me?

Hi i finally got my starsense to align on stars last night! Great bit of kit, but, when I tell it to take me to Venus it can’t get me that close I have to manually move it into view. should it manage this? Or am I expecting to much?

Hi all, just bought a 2inch diagonal (Vader click lock) for my 8se but stupidly didn’t get the 2inch visual back. is there a good or bad adaptor to connect the 2? Or are they pretty much a like for like product?

Thanks I’ll add that to the list!! None of the videos have mentioned that at all

Thanks. Ill not bother with it for now. It should all arrive on Friday and ill give it a spin! Hoping for some lovely clear nights next week!

its pre owned. but only been used for 20mins over the last year. Its a year old. With plenty of lenses and bits and bobs. im self isolating in the middle of nowhere and the night sky is unreal. I just need to get closer! haha

Hi Everyone, Ill be receiving my 8SE later this week and very excited about it!! Im looking at getting the wifi (SkyPortal) and the Auto Align Starsense to go with it. Is there any advantage of getting the GPS Module as well as the above 2? Or even instead of one of them? And also, is there another ports to run them all? Jon
