The add in Sky and Telescope shows this scope with standard XLT coatings. Would it be fastar compatible? Optical tube might be quite a value if it were fastar...also would require fastar lens which is probably not available yet...what do you think?

I seriously doubt this telescope will be Fastar compatible, seeing how Celestron doesn't even make the assembly to use it anymore. I think the only assembly you can buy now is called Hyperstar.

Let me know if you get one of these scopes. Curious to know how the optics are.

Thanks
Brock

I wonder if they plan to offer a Nexstar 6i version of this OTA, would be nice portable setup.
