[SOLD] 5" Newt + ED80 + WO P-Flat IV

[multiweb (Marc)]

Off loading some of the scopes I don't use any more. I found myself not using those two in about a year and a half so they're just sitting in the cupboard. Imaging ready so would rather sell together the newt with the MPCC and the ED80 with its flattener as they work together.

My 5" Newtonian is originally a Celestron Nexstar 130SLT. I have used it extensively. I use a Baader MPCC with it which will correct the field to a 30mm imaging circle.

Newtonian: $200.00 [SOLD]
It's flocked with protostar material, added a fan at the back of the primary, the primary and secondary were stripped and recoated by Isaac Qin about 12months ago (Quartz), comes with tube rings and focuser was upgraded to a 2" GSO 10:1.

Pics taken with the rig over the years: Sagittarius, Crux , Orion , Eagle, Dorado.


Orion ED80: $150.00 [SOLD]
It's flocked with protostar material, upgraded focuser to a 2" GSO 10:1. You'll get a very good field with the WO corrector. It's a doublet.

Pics taken with the rig over the years: Ara, Carina , Dorado , Carina.



William Optics P-Flat IV: $200.00 [SOLD]

PS: added shots of the primary cell with the 2.1mm jack for the 12V fan and the mirror surface.

Good question. Let me get back to you.

Tube assembly is 5.4 kg

The ED80's gone, only the newt is left with the MPCC. For $350.00 you've got a fast F/5 600mm FL Dia:130mm corrected little scope. Ideal for a newbie and it's ready to go. Everything is stiff as, collimated, no tilt or sag and ready to get some sky time. Even Fred had a look at the moon in it years ago and reckon it was sharp as. And that was before the southo breakie. C'mon, you know you want it.

Looks like only the MPCC is left so I might move this to accessories and imaging equipment soon.

Ok, Newt is on its way. MPCC left.

Baader MPCC (Mark I): $150.00
