I was given Carlos small rig Sharpstar 61EDPH II,ED Glass,APO,F5.9,Refractors,Aperture 61mm and a Primaluce SESTO SENSO Focuser which has an overall focal length of 275mm but depending which camera I put on it I can get 1100mm or 412 mm out of the same set up. I dont have short cables most of mine are 1.8m long i had three piled up on top but I was able to make two shorter ones for this rig.
To get balance I had to add a weight to the camera as I had to use my guide scope which is bigger and more front heavier than Carlos one. As the Computer is under the front I also had to add a small wire to tie up the front to make sure it was all stable.
QHY183C -10 39 shots per nights per panel 3 nights each.
600 sec each shot.
