Awesome little telescope with a small, but annoying design failure
I got this scope a vew days ago. As expected, the quality of manufacturing is at a very high level. Unfortunately I did not yes have the chance to get a first light with the scope, but I am sure it will produce great images.
Although, there is a small, but annoying design failure an the focusser in combination with the reducer/flattener. When you unscrew the visual back and attach the reducer/flattener, there is no mechanical stop on the retracted position of the focusser. So it is possible to push the focusser to far into the tube, until the rack and pinion gearing unscrews and the fucousser can fall into the tube!
I will make a small 3D-printed washer, to avoid this.
Anyhow, good scope! And I hope I can get my first images soon!
