Upgraded HEQ5, GSO RC8

Hola IIS, I'm selling two of my largest astro items due to moving overseas to the US at the end of the month.

Priced to clear hopefully - and if not the price will keep dropping until sold, so get in quick if you like the look of them

Belt modded, ADM saddle, HEQ5 Pro w/ telegizmos cover - $900
Also includes
- Bunnings foam hard case for mount head
- weights carry bag
- A custom cable loom that has eq direct, power and USB in it

I've had this since early 2019, absolutely no complaints with it. It has spent a lot of its life outside under a telegizmos cover so there is some rust on various, but functionally fine. I have replaced the tripod leg bolts once in the past, and its probably due another change now with some stainless steel bolts this time around.


GSO RC8, Moonlite 2.5" focuser -$700 SOLD
Also includes:
- 2 x 1" extension rings (the 2" one is attached to the scope in pics)

Used to be my main scope when using a 1600MM, but used it less vs short FL lenses after switching to a 6200MM and never quite dialing in the flattener right.

For autofocus it uses my custom ASCOM controller, details here: https://github.com/AlistairSymonds/SympleAstroFocus

For now, both of these are pickup/meet somewhere only in Sydney (north shore). But if no one bites I'll look into what postage would take.

If someone wants both I'll knock another $100 off

For samples of both of these together - look for images with diffraction spikes in this album:
