Funstar for 6" celestron

[labtech1122]

Hi, does anyone know if I can get the funstar for the 6" sct. I've seen on Google it says the 5,6 and 8 but when I go on each website no one seems to have it for the 6"

Not specifically answering your question but I recall that on a C6 you can make a homemade version by screwing the standard visual back onto the secondary holder (once the secondary has been removed). Might be worth a try?

See this video…. There appears to be severe coma with the Funstar

Oh yes there is that minor problem too! There are all kinds of aberrations as you are using a spehrical F2 mirror with no corrections. I assumed the OP would know its limitations, but if not, that video is a good illustration.
