Morning all, I had my 10" (250mm) newt mounted on the G11 (Gemini 1) last night, after about 2 hours of use I pointed the telescope almost straight up and after a few seconds it slipped around an inch

Thanks Brian! I think I’m gonna order from amazon then. It’s taking a little longer to arrive but I can wait. Mount hasn’t been re greased in 10 years I guess it can wait a few more

Hi Guilherme, We recommend against lithium Any grease with Teflon is a good candidate at the factory we use jet-lube MP-50 moly paste there are a few others on the forum i'm sure will make some

Hello all Are any of these two options OK for re greasing my GM8? Anything against them? Thanks! Guilherme

Hi Bittor, The fact that the communications is intermittent seems to point to a poor connection, a cable that's being pulled or snagged on something, or maybe a broken wire/connector that's making an

Hi, We are Far Light Team, four astrophotographers that have install a telescope in remote. We are using Talon 6 connect to Cloudwatcher and connect to Gemini I to park and close the roof. Our

I bought the QHY Losmandy adapter for my GM-8 but found the view from there didn't quite clear a local obstruction. So bought the ADM dovetail adapter and clamped it on the dovetail on my GSO RC.

Chip, I have version 1.0.17. Matt

Hi Matt, So you downloaded the free one? There is one listed for like $20 but that seemed risky to me for an app of unknown quality. -- Chip Louie Chief Daydreamer Imagination Hardware Astropheric

Chip, I loaded the Android app, yes. It is not (or was not) polished like the PC software. While it didn't say BETA, I believe it is (or was a year and a half ago). Some of the text was not English,

Donnie, Here is the ADM bracket for the PoleMaster, this one is a prototype, normally a PM camera is mounted the long way not backward over the clamp. -- Chip Louie Chief Daydreamer Imagination

Hi Matt, Have you been using the Android PoleMaster app? Does it work? I have not found anybody who has it working on a smartphone yet but if it works I'd use it for sure as I often just want to PA

Hi Donnie, "I am not sure if anyone is familiar with the Skywatcher EQ6-R, but now, I am at a toss-up between that or the G11G. " I certainly am. And you are comparing Apples (G11G), to Lemons (EQ6-R

My biggest problem with the Nema motors was finding the flexible couples small enough in diameter to fit. Most are 19/20mm and? and the GM8 needs 14mm. Apparently, I must have found some from Ali

Hi Paul, Thaks for your reply. I baught my G11 in 2011 at Optique & Vision ( http://www.ovision.com/ ) (France) Thank you for the differents links. I searched a long time on the web, but i wasn't

Thanks for the reply, Paul. My intuition said that it was in arc-minutes. But the manual says it is in arc-seconds. But I can see from the link you gave that the manual is wrong. Michael has my
