Nightspore Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Just arrived. Balance tests seem good. Pictured here with ED72 and the slightly unfashionable 19mm Luminos. I've set the friction clutches for the ED72. The new Vixen slo mo extension knobs are a vast improvement on the old ones. Above with the much more fashionable 36mm Baader Hyperion Aspheric. I'm impressed with the groovy little bag. Well, when I finally got my head around it. Hopefully I can test it tonight. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightspore Posted July 2, 2019 Author Share Posted July 2, 2019 It was pretty easy to set up, although later getting it back into the groovy little bag wasn't so easy lol. I'll need to practice. It was very steady with the ED72. If I knocked the legs accidentally the return was rapid. The tripod legs are more spread out than the AZ5 so care has to be taken not to trip over them when turning the OTA in the azimuth. The advantage is that I can get an observing chair nearer the eyepiece in between the legs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
