Best Telescopes for Tracking

once alignment is done, which took a few tries,tracking was accurate.

you really need to know nothing about which star is which to get the scope aligned and tracking star movement, and the hand-held control allows you to select stars, planets, and deep-sky objects by

the accuracy of the goto and tracking depend on the accuracy of the alignment.

the double axis tracking allows me to see the rings of saturn from the living room by aligning on a planet: the degradation of the image through the plate glass windows (but hey it way below zero

i did have some problems with the automatic tracking system, but it was fairly easy to clear up.

it's actually fun to use and does all the tracking and locating work for you.

many people complain that the skyalign doesn't work or that tracking is poor, but this is most likely the result of batteries.

unfortunately, i'm only a beginner and my celestial tracking skills leave much to be desired, and i'm still waiting for the moon to get out of the way so i can do some deep sky viewing.

and declination to find objects, once found, the manual tracking is easy to use and smooth.

the tracking does drain batteries fast so i had no choice than to upgrade to an ac power supply.

telescope will not respond to manual commands while auto-tracking.
