The transcript at 0.03 says my name as 'ravan'. This should be 'Pawan'. Thanks.
Recently i bought with 8se ,very easy and simple video to install. Thank you so much.
Thank you! Congratulations on your new purchase. I’m sure you will enjoy it a lot this summer. Cheers!!
One last question before buying ZWO ASIAIR Mini.
Can ZWO ASIAIR Mini control avx mount wirelessly? Do I need eaf control for Focuser for that ?
Yes. The wireless range is about 60 feet from the Wi-Fi router. Having an ear is a definite addition to your scope. Cheers!!
Best avx assembly video I’ve seen. Great job
Thanks for your kind words. Happy Holidays!
Perfect, I could not find a simple video setting up the AVX like this until I seen yours, thank you for the upload!!
Thanks Dave! I'm glad the video is helpful. Cheers!
This video was very helpful, thank you!!
Thanks for watching! Glad it was helpful! Clear Skies!
Good job. Nice to see another How To video from you after a long time.

Really nice overview of the AVX. CS!
Thanks a lot 🙏🏼. Happy Holidays!
Super explanation. Thank you!
Thanks! Cheers!
Very nice setup video. Nice clear instructions.
Thanks a lot. Happy Holidays!
Thank you!! ..just got one of these
Great! It's really nice one. CS!
Good video.
Thanks! I’m glad you liked it. Cheers!!
Great video. Less talking, more demonstration. 👍
Thanks!! I’m glad that you liked the video. Cheers!
Im waiting for the power tank to arrive. I just picked up an entire setup from a friend.. with a different telescope...Astro Tech refractor. But I can't test it yet.
Let’s hope that all goes well. Keep us posted. Thanks!
I notice you have a WO Z73 (or maybe Z61 I can't tell which) attached initially. I am waiting for shipment of this scope as well as well as the mount. What are the extra pieces you used to properly mount the scope to the AVX mount?
Hi Kip, Thanks for watching. In fact, it is WO GT71 with 0.8x Reducer/Flattener. GT71 is a triplet while Zenith star series are doublets. Both GT and ZS series scopes are good for beginners.
I used Celestron universal dovetail bar to properly balance the scope on AVX mount because the WO dovetail is too small.
Hope this info helps. Enjoy your new scope. CS!
Mine came 3 months ago and i tested it and everything works good. I have seen people say it has issues and backlash so do you have any tips how to prevent problems? But i will start taking pictures soon and for powering i use a 12v cable which i just plug in into a nearby socket.
Thanks for watching! I’m glad that the mount works well for you. Don’t worry about what others are saying. Just enjoy it. Clear Skies!!
Hello.
Are you using the cge universal mounting plate of celestron with your zenithstar on this vidéo ?
Yes, that's right. Thanks!
Pawan, thank you for this video. I notice that you used the AVX with fantastic results in many imaging sessions. Did you find it necessary to "hyper-tune" the mount or work on the internal elements of the mount to improve guiding precision? Thanks!
Thanks for watching and your kind words! Honestly, I have never done anything to this mount. It has worked perfectly well even since I bought it about a year ago. My total guiding RMS stays between 0.7" to 1.2", which is acceptable to me. All settings are running on default, except for the Meridian Flip, which I have to change sometimes according to the imaging target.
@@AstroCrescentDIY thank you, I'm glad to hear that. I ask only because I bought the AVX right before winter and have only used it for a handful of sessions so far.
@@TheGoKidd I am sure you will like it. For me, it has proven to be a nice mid-range mount.
Can you please share the GPS setup also?
Thanks for watching! If you are referring to tracking setup, I’ll try to make a video on that topic. CS!!
Can willium redcat 51 or askar 400 fit with this?
Yes, for sure. Thanks!
