Another player in the RC market

Good to see there is another player in the RC market. Sorry about the long hyper-link but the original website is in German...so you know the scopes must be good

Yes I saw them being advertised on Anacortes Astromart.

I have seen their website before. I was reading the specs on their 16 inch. Maximum spot sizes 1.5 microns at 25mm off axis if I read it correctly. That is way impressive.

Plus Mike Sidonio can finally get his F4 Newtonian with confidence.

I love the truss Newts they look sensational. I bet they really perform.

Greg.

I must admit they are very special, but the price is out of this world. considering the newts don't even come with a corrector unless purchased nore do they include the shipping box in that price. you basically get the OTA with a standard FT focuser for 25K + the customs and GST unless you have money to burn these are a bit out of most peoples range.

but still very special

I live 30 km away from Alluna Optics and I've seen the RC-Telescope last week. It is wonderful, great quality telescope! I would like to buy...
I think the RC is not too expensive.
The newtonians may appear expensive but there are no comparable quality. Alluna produces good optics, in europe very well known for it.
