Newtonians are the GoTo when it comes to clusters😲

[lethal stump]

Yes, but RC´s as well. For this image I used a RC10"

[rugged patio]

On what mount do you have that OTA installed?

2000mm needs some seroius guiding 😄

[lethal stump]

I used a Gemini G42 Obs, but currently I have the 10" RC on my little UMI17 and it guides the 18kg well.

Truss or solid tube?

Solid, Metal Tube. It’s an old one.

holy cow

i have the AM5N and considered a truss tube RC10 in the far future

id prefer to leave bortle 8 hell before then though

If the AM5N can haul that then the WAVE 150i can do it as well

Big fat RC gang brewing here?

[buoyant kiln]

perhaps

I need to build atleast an RoR observatory before even thinking to order such a big telescope

I'll need to graduate from grad school first, but I'm definitely going to have a permanently mounted RC at some point

Probably 14"

You have a 150i too??

NICE. I may DM you with some questions so I don't clutter this thread
