Since I'm an Apple guy, I'm guessing that I would need to buy the WIFI adapter and use the app with my iPhone? Is the iPhone app the same thing as the PC version?

What EQ mount is that, Mike?

Ordered one of these back for the eclipse. Very effective during the day.

Good to see you on again Mike top vid , I do enjoy them

Glad to see you back Mike

Nice.

My 8se connection shows only USB and Wifi. There is no handcontroller conncetion. What problems? usb cable pboblem?? Thanks,,,,

Thank you. Excellent video.

do you also need to cover the finder's scope?

Has anyone ever used a car battery? for example from the cigarette lighter socket?

So I can't see colored images through the eyepiece???? I have to take a picture to see the colors....???

with the newest version of CPWI I cannot connect my laptop. I see no option to use the handheld controller. Only 2 options, USB and Wifi neither of which work? I've been at this for 3 weeks now and it's driving me nuts

This is the best video for this telescope I've seen. Super helpful. Thank you!

I got a (new to me) 5se this morning. I've spent the day watching your videos and reading the manuals. These are just right - straightforward, no jargon, in a logical order. Great job! One question though: is there laptop software for a MacBook? Thanks!

Whats the cost of the software?

Well done video! Thank you. I am heading to hopefully set mine up now. :)

AMAZING

Honestly trying to follow this he's a little bit redundant with repeating

Jfc, Bob Ross is less annoying...

Great help. Thanks. Just tried and even though I'm aligning two stars Vega and Arcturus, it say quickly "failed" then says my finder is a problem. After Vega, it slewed almost right on Arcturus so I don't know why I'm getting an error message. Got to figure that one out but your videos are so helpful. Thanks!

Is there a risk to diagonal and eyepiece if SkyPortal drive the ota at the zenith ?

Same question as guisaldanha 4 months ago, but not answered. |Please can you explain: A)How did you get Canon to appear on the NINA list? What software have you installed from Canon? Can you pass the link? & What cables to connect the Canon to the laptop. B) How to do this for Sony Alpha cameras? Thank you for reply

Ok, just talked with Celestron. The new CPWI doesn't use hand controller anymore; it will only say USB or Wifi.

I am not seeing "hand controller" for connecting. Just seeing UBS and wifi?

Can this be done with a full frame camera?

You should do a video using SharpCap Pro! Great videos!

Lucky you I don’t have any near towers or anything to align it 😢

What do you think about C90?

Much needed info. Thanks

Subbed, neeeed a channel that can guide me with the 8SE

I am so new at this I don't know what questions to ask. You explain each process in a way that I can follow and understand. Thanks so much.

Great videos - extremely helpful - thanks!

Thank you so much! I've never used a telescope before and I'm so excited to get started.

Very helpful.. thanks

Can i use my 20,000,mah Xiaomi battery pack?

It's possible its the internet connection for the wifi causing it to leave the connection and reconnect to your home network. Most phones have a default option to make them disconnect from a wifi which does not have internet connection.

Great tutorial.....Thank you. I'm actually downsizing from my Meade 8" to the Celestron 5 se. At my age its a lot easier to lug outside without banging into door jambs, etc. Just needed a quick reminder on aligning..... ps. I also didn't know that you didn't need to identify the 3 alignment stars, but just any 3 bright objects. Good to know.

Hey what’s up man quick question I have the NexStar 130SLT for this process can I choose any random 3 stars or do I need to know the stars ? I’m new to this and learning how to use this telescope for my little brother. Thank you very much in advance!

Do you need a field flattener in there somehow?

Sorry I didn’t enjoy this video , took ages just to see you connect camera to telescope which is v easy takes 5 secs, what I was hoping for is you showing us the exact settings you used on the camera, shutter speed, aperture, iso settings and how you focussed ….

I use StarSense Autoalign what a time saver, a little pricey but I think if you can afford it, it is well worth it, just press connect and align and it does the alignment for you.

Thank you for your videos. Very helpful for this beginner.

@1:08 - actually, the cable in your left hand appears to have a USB-Mini male connector, and the cable in your left hand clearly has a USB-A male connector. It’s important to get the terminology correct.

When you were struggling to find saturn I think you had is zoomed in by 190%

Can a tablet be used instead of a laptop?

I couldn't believe my first photo I took, The Ring Nebula, set my cell phone camera to 15 second exposure with an ISO of 1600 👍🏻

Hello, so without insert position and date/time?

The direct wifi connection is good, but I prefer to set my scope as an access point and have it connect to my home network, that way my phone can still use wifi for internet while still accessing the scope. But I guess this is only relevant when at home, but the direct connection is a good backup.

I've added one to my scope, but the one thing I've never seen anyone mention, what is the chance the scope (the focuser or star diagonal) could slew into the dongle as it sticks up quite a bit.

This is a great video, thank you. We just purchased a 6SE and look forward to using it with this app. One question though, can you switch to red mode with the app? The places we go to have strict rules about using red mode and forbid and white light
