Connecting Vixen FL55SS to ZWO EAF


Recommended Posts

Anyone has any idea how I can connect the ZWO EAF to the Vixen FL55SS? 

What comes as standard does not fit 🤷🏽‍♂️
 

 

Attaching the L-bracket to the focuser fails because the screws positions on the focuser does not line up with the bracket screw holes. 

 

Attaching the L-bracket to the dovetail fails because there is not enough space between the focuser and the dove tail to fit in the bracket. 

And I cannot attach it to the bottom part of the dovetail because the bracket is not “tall” enough to fit the the motor from that position.

Any ideas ?

You can put an adapter extender/block between the dovetail and the scope. Or use another dovetail.

I was thinking of buying this scope and wondered about this too. Does the focuser adapter (grey round thing) fit the focuser on the scope?
