I bought this scope off of Astromart in May 2022 advertised as the EDXiii version (the one without the Capstan Wheel) but in doing more research after buying this scope it appears that it is the FSQ-106ED version that has the Capstan wheel camera rotator fixated (spokes replaced by grub screws) and the CAA placed at the end of the focuser as in the EDXiii version. Apparently the EDXiii version only differs from the ED version in that the capstan wheel was replaced with a casting made by Takahashi. Everything else was the same. The serial number is 08162.

The scope is in excellent condition aside from some minor scratches on the OTA and the glass is in excellent condition aside from some minor dust which is not enough to warrant cleaning.

Included:
Primaluce lab rings and dovetail
Deep Sky Dad automated flat light
Robofocuser Model 3.1
Multiple Precise Parts adapters to use before and after the CAA
The scope will be shipped in an AP130 case.

Shipping and Paypal fees are at the buyers expense.

Thank you,
Ron
