UPDATE: big word of warning to people considering this. The scope comes with a unique code that gives you access to the advanced features of the app. This code be used up to (if I recall correctly) up to 5 times (to allow for device upgrades etc). It MAY be that your code has been used if you are buying used. Please check!


I have this scope and recommend it, so easy to set up - the smart phone navigation is awesome, much better than the clumsy and time consuming built-in stuff that most other GoTo scopes have

    What’s the tripod like? I have a cheaper version from celestron and the tripod is awful and put me off using it

    The DX series are much better built than the cheaper series scopes. While I won’t say it’s like the Eiffel Tower it is perfectly adequate and of similar design to the older NexStar scopes
