    Which tripod did you end up using? looking at the flower pattern it looks a lot like the TC40 top of the ZWO tripod, but I guess it needs a mount where it actually goes into the top?

    I have a 200p and haven’t used it for astrophotography yet.Are you using a coma corrector and what spacing are you using for back focus..I just bought the 100i last week and it seems excellent so far but again uk weather ain’t good at moment

    • @AstroDadsUK
      @AstroDadsUK หลายเดือนก่อน

      I mainly use my 200P for planetary, but now I have the 100i will be using it more because of this I do not have a coma corrector and for backspacing I just use the default for the camera but as you’re probably aware the 200p has quite a bit of focus extension

    Tanks for your first impressions. I didn't catch your issues with the mount seat. What was the problem? Any fotos of your session to show? I still don't know if 150i or am5n is the way to go owning an asiair.

    • @AstroDadsUK
      @AstroDadsUK หลายเดือนก่อน

      So for the mount seat there is a picture/diagram of a telescope pointing in the north position. Mine was pointing south. I don’t think it’s an issue especially if you are left-handed. It would make it easier to access the bolts. As for the ASIAir it works with either one of them

    I bought mine at the end of July. To get the guiding to work I had to install a Firmware update, apart from that it has worked great, and yes it is quite, very quite. I was on the point of buying a ZWO AM3 but decided to wait a little longer for this mount to be released. I have not been disappointed.

    Did your mount have 3/8-16 threads or 5/16-16? I gather there may be a manufacturing issue as they are all supposed to be 3/8-16 and it would be helpful to know your experience.

    • @AstroDadsUK

    I'm amazed you can't purchase US standard bolts in UK. I would've mailed you a couple of bolts from here in the US. All the hardware stores here carry metric and SAE. I'm amazed that all this stuff is made in China why isn't it all metric? My AVX mount is metric yet the AM5 base thread is SAE. I'm interested in the 150I for my C8 SCT, I waiting for some reviews of the guiding with the 150i and a SCT. What is the weight of your rig?

    • @AstroDadsUK
      @AstroDadsUK หลายเดือนก่อน

      I'll start with the easiest first As for the wait I don't know will be taking it down soon so can check the weight. Ask for the bolt it's interesting here in the UK we use both imperial and metric measurements for a lot of things from length size widths for some reason when it comes to hardware we don't

    • @davevick1775
      @davevick1775 หลายเดือนก่อน

      It's not metric because 3/8"-16 is one of the two global standard camera tripod mount threads, the other being 1/4"-20. It's been that way for decades.

    Hey I love the pallet observatory idea! They're free, strong and last years if treated properly! I would suggest maybe just covering the outside of the observatory walls with thick Visqeen plastic sheets for rain and weather proofing, that would seem to me to be the cheapest option? As for the roof, I'd suggest something mega simple, to keep costs and complexity down the a bare minimum. I look forward to seeing if you do actually give it a go or not! Your M27 is beautiful! I read in the comments you mentioning the awful weather in uk lately. Well up here in Liverpool, we've had, by my count, just 12 cloud free nights ALL YEAR!! It's been driving me nuts! LOL. That said, the weather up here in NW England is set to be clear tonight and tomorrow night so I'm desperately hoping the forecasts are correct! Clear Skies, Wes, Liverpool.
