*if you use a camera other than the ones we provide, make sure it supports attaching widefield lenses via T2 thread. You may also need to fine-tune the settings.
**circuit tray is compatible with Raspberry Pi 3/4/5 by default. If you wish to use a different computer, like for example ASIAIR mini, please contact us via info@deepskydad.com.
***Our enclosure comes with a high-performance silicone sealed heater that maintains a stable internal dome temperature, preventing focus drift and eliminating the need for lens motorization. With our innovative magnetic lens focuser, a single manual focus adjustment during installation is all that’s required.
****Please specify diameter of the pole in the order note
