Sky Rover 102mm f11 Achro "I'm Confused"

Had this scope given to me and used it for the first time tonight ,Baader BBHS Amici prism Zeiss spec and Nikon Nav 17mm HW not expecting much at all pointed it at the Pleiades and literally went what's that !! Pinpoint whiter than white stars and perfectly flat field with no CA? used to a feathertouch which the focuser is definitely not but ok when i got used to it ,Then went to Orion and got the same rush this is truly a serious performer up there with the ED100 and dare i say at f11 a little more and just the size of the thing is its only disadvantage if you wanted to get picky,You listen to opinion on this site and others then experience 1st hand a scope through word of mouth should not even compete, Big lesson learned this evening that's for sure.......
