Just bought eq 5 pro. Have 12v power supply. Plugged it in and it began to whistle ...zzzzzz whatever you want to call it. Is this norma ?

Lol dud you,ve got your spreader on upside down.trun it around.i myself use the Meade Lx 85goto its the same as your just a different company name on it.

It looks just like my Meade Lx85 goto mount tripod

Still sounding wicked mate! Hope your doing ok 😁

My dad is the goat 🐐

Brilliant

Superb

how did you use the tracking function ?

Hi i lost my tripod bolt/rod for my EQ5 when i was moving. I'm looking into replacing it with a M10 threaded rod 330mm with some M10 washers and M10 star screws. I'm ;ppling into the measurments how far is the thread neede dto go into the EQ5 mount to wel fasten it. i'm thinking into 3d printing some M10 long 50mm threaded nuts to give some space between the tripod base and the star screws

Wow throwback to the iPhone 4/4S it's been this long?

cool.....

my mount broke like this: ua-cam.com/video/rPsHygR8iuM/v-deo.html now I don't know what to do...

You should level the tripod before putting the mount on

The polar alignment will only be good if the polar scope is centered correctly. Otherwise you’ll never get a good polar alignment

but how do you align to polaris, when its daylight ?

does the mount have to be fully polar aligned before i can mark the polar home position with a sharpie ? or do i just level the mount then use the spirit level then mark it ? or should i not mark the mount ?

I did not understand the part where you aligned Polaris - can you explain it any more in depth?

what is the Reflector largest tube this mount can take?

Thank you so much!

So taking the HA and applying it to the PA clock will get you to the exact location ie the middle of the hole on the rectile

I am struggling to locate Polaris. My mount is level and altitude is set the EQ5 is facing north just can not find Polaris I am looking for it at night. Can anybody help me out.

Latest EQ5 mount is slightly different in that the reticule no longer has the small circle for Polaris. Instead it has two concentric circles for different epochs, and hour divisions around the circle "clockface" for getting the RA setting correct.

BRILLIANT I am just starting out into AP and planning to buy an EQ5!😀

why 22 - 35?

Now I know how much I didn't know - a very helpful place to be! Thank you for this - will look forward to testing it dry tomorrow and in anger on Thursday night with a forecast of clearer skies! Thank you!!

Ade, just wanted verification that the legs on this scope do extend down for leveling before I buy, many thanks for posting.

thank you, good cover!! I took a piece for the video, but left a link to you, do you mind?? Thanks!

man, this is complicated stuff :O*

HI THIS MAY SEEM LIKE A DAFT QUESTION BUT I TAKE IT YOU CAN ONLY POLAR ALIGN WHEN YIOU CAN SEE POLARIS

At 5.45 where the fuck did the hour angle come from you lost me utterly there

Woow You did a wonderful job my friend! 👏🏼 I absolutely enjoyed it! 😊 (I just covered this too btw)😁

Superb!!!

Awesome that Ade!!!!

Well that's pretty impressive 👏

Hell yea! 🤘

Lovely looking man

Might be able to be blinded by the light .... But you can't bend it

This is good. I like this version better than the original.

You seem to imply the reticule need to be pointing up and down - 0 at top 6 at bottom? How do you adjust this? I've been asking people for weeks.

Thank you.

It is astonishing that in England one can see the North Star in the bright sky. I'm really having trouble finding him. Maybe that's just me.

i always balance mine with the camera and weights added as these could knock it off polaris or accidently nudge the mount whilst fitting.

This was /incredibly/ helpful for me. I own the exact same telescope and am looking at buying the exact same mount. This video made me confident to order this mount. Thank you so much!

very helpful, thanks

Sounding great

All we need is a tractor in the field harvesting. Still a good video.

Great video. I was able to follow ok right up until about 6:00.

Nice video! really usefull for a beginner.

Oh man.... Mrs mowing the yard is something... Other than that good video!

With all due respect as there is allot of useful information in this video so thanks.....but! The hole time all I could think about was the guy being Allan Partridge with Lynn mowing the lawn in the back ground haha
