Hyperstar modification.
You finally own the Kit and you wish the Hyperstar modification on your SC but you are not able to enforce the work?
We make this for you. We modifie you your SC-Telscope as you can see beneath
-
we dismount the Schmidt-Corrector-plate (the corrector will be marked BEFORE be shure it will be not distorted build in)
-
we dismount the secondary holder (will be marked BEFORE)
-
we remove the secondary holders
-
we change the original telescope parts to the Hyperstar parts
-
we collimate the telescope on a artificial star
-
we can also collimate the Hyperstar lens on the artificial star
We organize the time we work to "normal" instance. Should arrise problems by removing the Corrector plate or the telescope was opened before and incorrect compounded by somwewhere else, we would NOT accomplish the modification.
HyperStar lenses are available for five telescopes:
6", 8", 11" and 14" Celestron Schmidt-Cassegrains and
10" and 14" Meade Schmidt-Cassegrains.
