RedCat 51 and ToupTek ATR3-16000 quick test

I got a new setup ready and only a short opportunity for first tests, but still managed to find out I need a smaller counterweight :) ToupTek ATR3-16000 is a color cooled camera with same Panasonic sensor as ASI1600 (RisingCam on Aliexpress, also branded by ES, Astroshop and others).

Crop, 10s x 200; Baader Neodymium Moon & SkyGlow:

Imaging setup (- helical focuser):

To have more fine focus on the RedCat 51 I used a very short non-rotating T2-T2 helical focuser from Teleskop Express.
