2017 the xlt 150mm newtonian reflectors delivers - Celestron Omni XLT 150mm Telescope

2017: The mount is very stable and stays with target at celestial speeds with motor drive upgrades, in my case I purchased two drive motors. I don't experience any play with the drive motors and if there is play, Celestron website under troubleshooting tells you how to fix tight or loosen mount movements. The CG4 mount with drive motors also supports my NexStar 8SE OTA and I have taken nice pictures of Orion Nebula, IF you have your mount polar aligned, if not you will only have 5 seconds of stills before you see star streaks. For the price of this unit displayed here, its a very good bargain to build on and learn how to use your german equatorial mount. I can tell you this, to the naked eye, the 6 inch OTA Newt is very wonderful. I have taken this Newt to the dark hills of West Virginia, West By God Virginia and the Omni XLT 150mm delivered and stayed dead on with the celestial objects; stars and nebulas, drive motors can't follow solar objects.
