I'm so happy with my new telescope! This Skywatcher 150mm telescope (150P-DS) came with a decent motor-controlled mount with go-to capability (EQM-35 Pro).

I'm so happy with my new telescope! This Skywatcher 150mm telescope (150P-DS) came with a decent motor-controlled mount with go-to capability (EQM-35 Pro). Out of the box, it comes with a Synscan hand controller, which is fine, if somewhat tedious to use.

The WiFi adapter is reasonably priced (relatively, telescope parts are rather pricey), but that's no reason to stop us from building our own version!
