Description

By popular demand we are now selling the Orion Guidescope together with all the parts you need to mount it on EQ5 and EQ6 mounts.

The Short Tube 80 Guide Scope is usually supplied as a bare OTA.

In this package we will include the Orion Guide Scope Bar and 105mm Tube Rings as pictured.

To complete the package (and because so many people are using the Starshoot Autoguider) we will even include the Orion 1.25" extension tube!

The Orion Guide Scope bar will mount directly to the top of many tube rings. If the telescope's dovetail bar is a standard 8" or 13" Dovetail then all mounting holes will match up.

If mounting to the top of an SCT (Meade or Celestron) we also have Losmandy mounting rails and quick release dovetail adapters to suit.
