  1. All, I have just taken delivery of an Ioptron CEM70G and a Williams Optics GT71 with a load of accessories. I cannot balance it.  Although I am very amateur, I believe it is because:

     

    1. the counterweight is too heavy for the scope - impossible to balance in RA

    2. the scope is too short when fitted with all other accessories and accessories clash with mount - cannot balance in DEC

    Am I doing something stupid? Pictures attached

  2. Yes the link has now been fixed. It now takes you to Dropbox and not the Google drive which needed permissions. 
     

    I did receive an email from Altair Astro - it had unfortunately made its way into my spam folder. 
     

    For anyone attempting to download I found that neither Edge, Chrome or internet explorer would let you download as it showed up as a virus. This is even after going through and disabling all my antivirus settings I could. However, Firefox does allow the download.
