Looks pretty solid to me.

Doesn't have much backfocus spacing available. Something in the ballpark of 50mm. On my 10" I plan to test out the AP27TVPH once I have some expendable sky time...

The reducer is useless. Dont buy it.

Love the CDK scopes (or in my case iDK) they are a joy to use and produce excellent data. Congrats! The 1100 will enjoy it too.

You can update the firmware from the AP website.

Looks excellent! 🙂 Just getting rolling myself tonight. Wizard Nebula in OIII tonight.

Loving this combo with the full frame CMOS chip.

In Finger Lakes, no less. 😉

Starlight XPress cameras are made in the UK and service is available in the US.

You and I landed n in basically the same reasons. I had one more minor one that the cp4 on the Mach 1 doubles as a backup for my 1100 with encoders in case I were to need to send its cp4 box in.

🙂 Yes, I decided to go ahead and do the upgrade and placed my order. I posted the CP3 on Astromart and it already sold. It will be nice to have both mounts on CP4.

Yeah the QSI cameras are great. I had a few of the Sony chipped ones. The 6120 and 690.

Ahhh okay. I'm slow today. I've heard getting service from QSI now takes an extremely long time...

It was a joke

I wouldn't call them better.

Time to get that full frame CMOS.

According to this thread history, yes. The question I am trying to answer for myself is what the real benefit would be for me to upgrade my Mach 1 from CP3 V2 chip to CP4. I looked at the comparison c

Resolved this problem. The Gerd Neumann ships with a 10mm adapter, and the inside of that adapter was too reflective/shiny. I flocked it with some flocking paper and the problem is resolved.

Plus you can manually input pressure. I just get reading at the start of the night and add 1 to it then plug that into APCC. I get the rest of the data from the Pegasus driver.

It's worth the full price imo.
