@groundhoppingwlkp3622 this is my grab-and-go comet shooting setup 😁 it’s fine for the rasa for tracking - also decent guiding at 400mm, completely usable. For slewing you have to decrease the max speed otherwise the voltage falls and it crashes dramatically 😁
@the_space_koala yes voltages on AMs are the issue :P BTW - RASA8 for go-to scope? You don't have to collimate it after each trip? I think about Askar 103 with 0,6x reducer (F4) to photo comets from the field and not have to collimate it😅
@groundhoppingwlkp3622 no mine has held its collimation even since I bought it! Otherwise I would’ve sold it as I have no patience haha! The askar is probably a good scope, I have had a good experience with a few of their models

Nice petit little ☄️ 🤗
Pretty Little comet
huge reveal has been done, she's not skinny
I guess discovering an oldie. But what a goldie! Amazing flex!
It's a RASA8 on AM5?
it is a RASA8 on an AM3
@the_space_koala how it's working without counterweight? Full rig it's rather heavier than 8 kg ;) ?

👍👍👍
Very cool, and nice telescope
Great idea framing it between those clusters - patience paid off!
thank you! yes I thought it was a cute composition
At first I thought "why is that telescope so small" 😂
Ehehehe
Huh?
@Hayden6-3 I thought that red bracket at the beginning is the telescope
