  1. I feel very stupid but I'm not sure what to do. I bought a 127 mak. All I can see is black though if I point it at something in the sky. 

    Lens caps are off. 

    I've had it to pieces in that the eye piece have visual through it, the diagonal has image through it. 

    If I shine a touch down the end of the tube I can see white light through the eye piece so it is passing light. 

    I have moved the focusser to both ends of the extreme. 

    Still no luck. Where am I being an idiot? 

  2. Looking for my first scope. I like the idea of the GoTo Mount (AZ GTi) and these two scopes - Skymax 127 or Explorer 130 - come with this mount. It can take up to 5kg (if you do have other suggestions), but presuming you don't, which one do you think is best? I'm looking for an all rounder, so planets and DSO but not looking to get into AP yet. 

    Any pointers gratefully received. Thanks.
