i'm new to astronamy and astrophotography . i'm using a sky-watcher startravel 127 with the celestron neximage 5 and i was wondering if anyone could tell me if a celestron radial guider would fit my scope ??

Sorry I can't help with this particular question but I'm sure someone will be along soon that can.

I assume you mean a Skywatcher Skymax 127. The Neximage 5 is a planetary/Lunar camera which isn't capable of long exposures so a guider isn't required for imaging. Also, if your telescope is attached to the Goto Alt-az mount, the length of exposure is limited before field rotation becomes apparent so the mount is not suitable for DSO imaging.
