Hi All,
I have had one for about 11 years now. Its a 4.5 meter and motorized.
The thing has lasted so long, and is now re located in my new home, so its been assembled twice, and everything fits like a glove.
Really strong, and solid. weighs a bit, and smooth to run.
Colin from Astrodomes has really put together a working dome. I haven't needed to replace anything yet (Actually just one remote control). Yes, it even has a wireless remote for the shutter, which is good if it starts to rain before you have a chance to get to the dome.
Always cool, because the dome colour is white, so reflects heat.
Only real complaint I have, is that there should have been more black paint sprayed inside. It was thin in some areas, and good in others, so in the daylight, some light comes through. No difference in the dark, but that's about all I can find..
I highly recommend it, and it works with Maxdome II really easy, and mine is all computer controlled, and rotates where it needs to from "The Sky" software.
I have attached some images from my first assembly. I didn't take any on the second, as I didn't think I would need too, as its the same process as the first.
Theo.
