This is my telescope!

a TS optics F3.2 Newtonian

Equipped with a ZWO 533 MC Pro, Askar OAG, 220mm mini guide camera, a filter drawer, and filters, ( Optolong L-Extreme/ Optolong UV^IR CUT)

This telescope is basically the Apertura Carbonstar 150, just without the red colors, everything else is exactly the same.

I’ve mostly had refractors, so a Newtonian was something different.

Out of the box, this is a very good telescope, but with some teething problems, flares.

Add a primary mirror mask, paint the secondary, and it’s gone, this took me a year, then came the next problem, dew.

Solution? A fan that runs very softly against the primary mirror, since then no more dew.

The focuser was also replaced with a CYCK focuser from AliExpress, a fantastic thing! Not because the original focuser had problems, but because the CYCK focuser has internal threading to screw in an accessory, in my case a Baader ClickLock.
