Kirscovitch Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Was looking at the Orion Intelliscopes. They are a customized DOB. You get to pick and choose a bunch of options. Just wondering if anyone has ever used one. How well does the "push to" system work? I had a 10" DOB for about 6 months and though I had some amazing views with it, I could never get the hang of star hopping and never had much success finding DSO's. If this system would work it would be nice for a quick setup and give me something to do while my other rig is imaging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooot Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 I use Astro Devices Nexus which you can attach to most Dobs to use as a push to system. It uses encoders like the intelliscopes and is very accurate so I'd guess the intelliscopes are also very good from that view point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Drew Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 I have a 6" and 8" Intelliscope, the optics are great and the "push to" feature is excellent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
