WHAT?! The Radian telescope was NOT designed by Astrobackyard?! 😁 Just teasing… Great video, as always! Salut, Antoine 😉
I'm so glad this channel is growing so well, great to see a channel get the recognition they deserve.
Happy I found this channel!
Sharpstar continues to dominate the refractor market!
Hi, thanks for sharing your review. Looks like a well constructed scope. It's great timing, I am actually looking for portable scope that is a bit easier to move around and set up than my 10" Sct and 130mm Refractor I have been using for years. I see a new Apertura in my future! Cheers!
Another great video. The ginger cat in it is almost an exact double of my cat I had a few years ago called Tiddles ❤
Damn, I just realized OPT going under meant that Astrobackyards telescopes went under too? I still have the original Radian Raptor 61 which apparently lost a lawsuit for naming rights to a hiking company. Which is why it was just called the Radian 61. But now both telescopes arent even available from AgenaAstro. So is that in limbo?
I like the Elephant Trunk Nebula as it's visible year round being circumpolar, I preferred the natural color one though.
Mu Cephei a supergiant red star (3rd or 4th largest in the galaxy) is on the edge of the Nebula. It is worth a high power look when conditions allow.
What's going on with the mount during the time lapse at the 1:55 mark? It looks like the altitude adjustment slipped over a period of time
Do they have any planes to come out with a 90 mm version of this scope ?
I'm noticing you took the beloved FRA500 off the mount for the video and since you are one of the few people I've seen with experience on several scopes I'm interested in I am wondering if you had to choose between the following which would you prefer:
The FRA500, the Apertura 75, an Askar V, or an Fra400.
I am currently using an 8" SCT but would like to add a wide field scope to the mix. I think it's a win with any but I like your channel so much I thought I'd ask.
Askar PHQs are great but slow, stars are pinpoint!
Very nice review! What dual band filter do you use?
The Askar 6nm dualband magic color
Which filter did you use for this? Couldn't find it listed on your equipment page...
Askar Duoband filter 6nm. I'll have to update that page soon!
The price is unbelievable. $999 right now. I haven’t tested it or anything but it beats the competition, in paper, and according to this review.
Trevor, of AstroBackyard, didn’t design this one. Only the 61mm Radian Raptor.
This one looks better, bigger and cheaper than the 61mm unit.
Worth mentioning: ZWO offers the 65mm Petzval for the same price. Askar too.
this have better optics
The show is great but as a review I don't get it. Narrowband test on new 5 element telescope? Kidding? What about color correction? PSF, are stars soft or pinpoint? No refocusing. What about pixel peeping into the image corners? Is the focuser robust? Should I buy it? or maybe my Orion ST 80 is good enough? Oh well actually it is pretty good in narrowband :D
So the apertura brand is a high point generic brand? Or they worked with apertura
Curious to know why opt is no longer around
I heard it was a combination, of the Covid policies in CA as well as the business environment and the owners wanting to move on.
Cool video. Stella is missing and im pretty sure you had a black cat. So whats up with that.
Cheers!
Stella is still there and the black cat too :D I guess they were sleeping while I was recording this time hehe
@@GalacticHunter thanks for the answer. I bet Stella is the director and executive producer in most episodes, so acting too could be too much sometimes. I get it 😅
