OpenAstroTracker - updated 

I made this during the first lockdown. I got it up and running with the arduino. Realised it’s not accurate enough and then went and spen £1500 on a good mount. Followed by a camera, telescope, guiding, filters, dedicated camera etc. this has cost me a fortune. Into a hobby that I really love. Thank you. Keep it up. You inspire people to do more. Well done.

This project has come so far from when I was a bata tester. Crazy

I have a buddy that has a 3D printer and we've been talking about getting a couple printed for us since we have a lot of good dark skies out here in AZ. I really want to get some nicer night sky photos without needing to rely on stacking as much. This will definitely be a cool thing to test out since it's not as expensive as other trackers and looks like it could do just as well or even better.

Amazing project that goes some serious way to removing financial boundaries for people and youngsters alike accessing astronomy. Medals all round

Awesome updates !! I subscribed the newsletter few month ago, to buy one. Can't wait for it ^^

Way cool!!! :D Looking forward to building this project! Thanks for sharing!

Thanks again for sharing! I'm ready to start calibrating mine tonight hopefully!!! :D Very exciting!!!!!!

You man deserve a lot of respect.

Fantastic project! Keep it up!😃👍

Echt klasse das Gerät. 👍👍👍

Can't wait to get one of these!

great updates

This is brilliant work

You made it awesome! THX

Well now I have a new challenge to build!!!

WOW, now it just needs some rain proofing and this would be neat-O, can we get a demo of it live in use please and some pics from it?

WoooW! SUPER !

I have few questions when it will be ready to buy from your shop? Also have question if it will support to wirem release the shutter? Also it will be great if it have gps module or sth. I wanna start astro jurney and this product is perfect... also I love open source project... GREAT JOB!

This can be used with large telescopes like the celestron 90eq?

Awesome !!! Without the 3d parts, what is the other components, arduino, motor drivers, etc? What parts should I buy?

Im trying to wrap my head around these. you have the barn door will not follow long. Im thinking about a pan and tilt because it is so easy to construct, does not twist so to speak. But this looks...? Do I need to get my focal point centered? hum? I think it would be easier if the world was flat.

What is the expected weight bearing spec? DSLRs and primaries (esp with cooled cameras) are heavy and large, plus guide scope.

Not sure if I can message here but can you export SolidWorks files that are compatible with previous version of solidworks? I cant open your Solidworks CAD files with old version of SolidWorks v2018. Thanks much appreciated.

Is there an outline file / dxf for a solid base? it would be cheaper for me to cut a piece of chipboard or MDF instead of printing the base or buying 2020 extrusion. Thanks for this amazing project

Hi ! I'm wondering if it works with smartphone equipment for astrophotography ? Thanks in advance!

can you make a printing guide please? i don't have a 3d printer and instructions for the printshop would be nice

Approximately how much filament does this use? I'd love to print it with some nice Proto Pasta filament but that stuff is pricey up in CanadaLand. lol

Is this still being supported? The wiki is down.

make a vid that shows the mount and how long it takes from start to finish

Hi,machst du auch ein Video zur Software Bedienung? Bin noch am Aufbau und hab mich versucht einzulesen, aber steig da nicht durch wie ich das dann mit Stellarium bediene und auch erst mal auf Polaris ausrichte. Wäre super.

Donde se fabrican quien los vende

wow

Hey! I've one of those :D
