  1. Hi there. No, I have not, but I sure will. Regarding the FLO, I am in Belgium, so I wonder if I would have to pay importation fees if I buy something from them. Do you know how this works? I noticed you are in the Netherlands, so I would suspect the process should be similar. (I am actually from South America, so I have no clue how this things work here in Europe) Thanks!
  2. Yes, it is helpful! I am still trying to learn about all the aspects of OTAs and eyepieces, but the more I read, the more confused I am , so it is nice to have some direct guidance from someone more experienced! Thanks a lot!
  3. Hello my friends, I am trying to get started in this wonderful hobby, and have decided to buy the OTA Skywatcher Explorer 150/750 PDS to use with a mount that I already have. As this would be my very first telescope, I am wondering what eyepieces would be good to use with it. I was thinking of buying two eyepieces and a 2x Barlow lens. I have asked this question to people from Teleskop Service (TS) and received as recommendation: a low magnification eyepiece of 20 mm (TS 20 mm 70º wide angle) and 6 mm eyepiece for medium magnification and close to maximum magnification when combined to with the Barlow (TS 6 mm Planetary HR and as Barlow the TSShorty 2x Apo Barlow ). So I would like to hear your thoughts on this set of eyepieces both in terms of range for observation and in quality of the products from TS. I am trying to keep this on a budget, and these are indeed in price range I am looking for, but would you recommend something different?
  4. Yes, the tripod legs is what I was most worry about. But if they are 1m long I think I may be able to find a suitcase in which it can be fit. Thank you for your reply!
  5. Hello there. I am new to astronomy and I was planning on buying this same mount (EQM 35 Pro). I am currently in Europe, but will soon be moving (back) to South America, where the mount is not available as a buying option, so I wonder if the mount would fit inside a regular size suitcase, so I can dispatch it on the airplane. Do you think this would be feasible?
  6. Hello there, If possible, I would like to get some insight into the equatorial mount Skywatcher EQM-35 Pro SynScan GoTo. I am new to astronomy and I am looking for a mount that would fit both my purpose of beginner in astronomy while at the same time allow me to use it in the case I want to go a little deeper into it and start making some astrophotography. So I wonder if this mount would be a good choice. Also, in a few months I'll be moving (back) to South America, so I wonder how difficult it would be to make a polar alignment there since the polar star will not be visible. Can the GoTo mount help in this case? Or the GoTo system itself is something unrelated to the alignment? Any thoughts o the matter will be appreciate. Thank you very much.
