    The whole class action story involving the various telescope companies in Richmond, BC, Canada is very interesting

    I was listening to another youtuber claim that Orion Telescopes shut down. The comments section was flooded with very kind words to say about a guy named Ken. Former employees and former customer alike all talked about how Ken helped them and how he was a great guy to work with. One guy said he was troubleshooting a problem then called back later and he recognized the voice. It was Ken! I had to look up this Ken guy and what'ya know I recognize him from some previous Orion videos I've seen years ago that I thought were amazingly helpful. I wish you the best Orion Team and Ken!

    I just purchased a 8” Newtonian from Orion, having major issues with back focus, manual says 83.2mm, doesn’t work. I also picked up the coma corrector, there’s just no way I can find focus with that using my ZWO533…..any ideas?

    • @deepdiver0101
      @deepdiver0101 2 роки тому +3

      Yes, but in the newer construction. It is identical to the TS flatfield 70 mm f5 (TSAPO71Q) which I had at one time. Flat field with APS-C out of the box. Skyrover had the same scope and william optics use the same CNC parts, if you look closely. The redcat 71 is this with a few embellishments.
