This scope has had its motor control board upgraded to address servo vibration issues that hinder many original Nexstars. It's an outstanding performer both visually and photographically (renowned Celestron optics) with carbon fibre tube for low thermal expansion qualities reducing the amount of time you need to refocus as ambient temperature drops. Minimal mirror flop experienced with well greased baffling tube. Fastar compatible for F/2 imaging. Motor firmware is 4.4, hand controller is 1.6.
Reason for grand Easter sale - This equipment does not fit into my future astrophotography project plans and will simply sit in the garage collecting dust. Might as well be used by someone else.
Happy Easter!
PM me if your interested. Thanks for looking.
