Good video! I amt hinking tot upgrade wo a larger aperture telescope, and a larger newtonian seems the logical step, for price and aperture. I am tring to find a good newtonian 8 to 10 inch, but not too expensive. Do you know if is much quality difference between the UNC and ONTC Series? the UNC ones i noticed there are not so flexible with differetn adaptations, but the price is much more accesible

Hi Chrizzly, thanks for the nice video and great upgrade! Inspired by your video, I recently finally got my own TS ONTC6f4. It looks like decent quality. However, I was disappointed to see that TS Optics actually used the HSZ6 primary mirror holder instead of the triangular 9-point HSZONTC6 holder which is explicitly shown to come with the telescope on the ONTC6f4 sales page. I contacted TS Optics and they admitted that the different holder was used (without telling me) but justified it being 'functionally the same'. This is not acceptable since I ordered the ONTC version instead of the Photon or UNC series precisely for the upgrades. Just wanted to ask if yours came with the HSZ6 or HSZONTC6 holder? Thank you for your time.

Do you think this mount would be precise for Canon 90D and Samyang 135mm? The combo is around 1.6kgs? I'm interested in deep space objects and nebulae - I have done them untracked, so thinking to buy this one to get even better results. But good precision is what I need the most. Thanks.
@ChrizzlyUniverse 6 ай бұрын
Hey! Great question and luckily I have the Samyang 135mm myself, but with the Sony E-Mount. Officially the LX4 supports up to 4 kg so it would be inside the limit, but one important aspect is the center of weight here, because I'm not too sure if it can handle such an offset. Compared to my other lenses, the 135 is quite front heavy and I have not paired it with the LX4, because of the weight offset/balancing. Because even if the total weight is below the trackers limit, the leverage and resulting torque might be too much to handle. => If you have a lens mount that supports the weight of camera + lens somewhat in the middle (good balancing), it might work out, but to be frank (and not to give bad advice) I would not recommend it for this case, especially if it is your first tracker and you want to go for deep sky targets and not only milkyway panoramas, it might save you some headaches. Hope this input is helpful! Clear skies!
@michaelbibby8636 6 ай бұрын
The TS 8" is just a rebranded GSO 200 800. They are well known to need some simple modifications (better springs on the collimation adjustment bolts, a bit of tape on the cork around the mirror to make sure the mirror doesn't move in the cell) to make sure they hold their collimation well, but I don't know what 'backlash' and 'grinding' problem you were having with the focuser. One thing people do to reduce tilt is to line the outer most edge of the copper ring in the draw tube with sticky tape, to slightly decrease the inside diameter of the clamping ring and help your coma corrector to stay on axis and reduce the possibility of tilt getting into your imaging train when you slowly tighten the screws, alternating between them. You can do the same thing to the coma corrector: slightly increase its diameter using a single layer of clear tape, or even masking tape, so it fits a bit better into the draw tube and further reduces the likelihood of tilt. Other common modifications are: flocking the tube, an aperture or mirror mask, mounting the fan on a plastic board to prevent stray light and help the fan to more effectively cool down the mirror and circulate up the tube, helping prevent the secondary from dewing up, and painting the back and sides of the secondary with chalk board paint. After all that, it is an extremely capable telescope.

Hi Christian, thanks for the video! Was there a reason why you went down in size from an 8" to a 6" when you moved to the ONTC series? Was it due to what was in stock, or was it something else such as cost, size, focal length, or something else? I'm considering getting an ONTC and would prefer an 8" but it may be a little large and difficult to transport vs the 6", which I need to do for astrophotography. I'm also planning to pair it with a HAE29 like yours! Finally, if it is not too much to ask, may I know what is the external length of the ONTC6"f4 tube? I asked TS but did not receive a specific number, and would like to know for travel/transport. Thank you!
@ChrizzlyUniverse 8 ай бұрын
Hello there, and thanks for watching! Valid questions you have there, let me try to answer them one by one: 1) Yes I would've loved to have a bigger ONTC scope, so it was not really a technical point, but more the price aspect 😄(combined with availability) I was planning for a while and then saw the 6" version in stock and just had to grab it 😆 Also for the bigger versions I was unsure whether I should upgrade my coma corrector... An ONTC > 6" is definetely on my wish list... But maybe in 3-5 years :D 2) Your idea to combine it with the HAE29 works well. IMO, the HAE29 suits it nicely (have done some sessions already, but plan mainly on the winter season to go all in with that combo). I would advise to have a look at the pier/pillar extension for the HAE29, I wouldnt want the scope to hit the legs (especially considering the high torque available to strain wave mounts^^). 3) The length of the tube is approx. 64 cm and the diameter of the outer edges is ~ 19 cm (not counting ring clamps, accessories and such). It is a bit easier to transport than my old 8" Photon, but overall I would say both sizes are still nice for transport. Hope this helps! 🙌🏻 Cheers and CS!🌌
@loneoceans 8 ай бұрын
@@ChrizzlyUniverse Thanks so much for the detailed response, I appreciate it. I'm still deciding between the two, but I am leaning towards the 6". The length of the 8" (especially ONTC with the longer tube) makes it almost impossible to fit into a reasonably-sized luggage if I do want to take it for travel on a plane (with the main mirror removed of course), while the 6" fits much more easily based on your measurements. For the Coma Corrector, I'm thinking of the Paracorr 2 - quite expensive, and it seems like it may protrude inside the main tube; the alternate is the 0.95x TS Maxfield. Do you have any thoughts about those? I'm looking forward to seeing your future images!

@@loneoceans No worries, glad if I can help! Ok, now I see, did not plan on taking the scope on a plane ride, so no restriction for my decision. For your question on the corrector: Can't really say much about the paracorr, only that I've read quite some positive stuff about it :D I'm still happy with my TS GPU 0,95x in this combination. The TS corrector is still short enough not to block anything in the main light path. Be careful though in your decision, the focuser is relatively short, so if you add a few more cm to the GPU, it would reach into the main tube (dont know hoe long the paracorr is).
