Do not buy this ! Cannot be handled.

You cannot collimate this with a Cheshire or a Howie Glattor collimator. It's too bulky and due to be discontinued.

Turns out I can't use this for visual astronomy, some gubbins about focal lengths and ratios and suchlike. Was going to use it for bird watching in daylight, but it's not exactly portable is it? Also a few bits melted on delivery, sure Bob's Knobs must do replacements.
Very disappointed anyone wants it pre pre owned it's going on Astronomy Buy and Sell and ebay tomorrow!

I'm sure it's good, but I live in Britain so I can't see the point.

Unfortunately the telescope was broken when first used but has since been fixed and got some nice pictures

Are instructions in Welsh available.

Does this have an ASCOM driver?

No doubt the optics in the main OTA are top quality, but these are rendered useless by the lack of suitable mounting points for my Orion SSAG. The only points on the scope with suitable screwpoints to mount the dovetail suffer from obstructed views, caused either by the solar panels or the covers at the front of the OTA. I have therefore been unable to guide with any precision. The only solution I can think of is to get the drill out and make my own mounting points. Either that or try an OAG. Disappointed. Any reasonable offers to purchase welcome, even if just to take it away for spare parts. Offer includes a free Orion SSAG - never used.

Ordered in 1985. Expected delivery still 5 - 10 working days 😏 Not a criticism of FLO who appear to be the most realistic 😀

Ordered one - but it burned up on re-entry.

Come on parcel force - up your game a little.

Hopefully Covid-19 won't affect the delivery time of 2 of these bad boys. I've moved a few shrubs from the patio area so there should now be enough room. If optics remain undamaged during transit and I manage to mount them both on a SkyTee-2 I'll give a longer review of the set-up … fingers crossed for a 5 star performance
