We develope a DIY kit to upgrade Dobsonian (GSO manufatured brand, such as Apertura AD, Zhumell Z, Orion Skyline ..).
Introduction
The DIY system integrates auto goto/tracking/micro motion, manual push to and an electric focuser together. Currently, It runs on our Android app (iOS app will be available soon) and Windows Stellarium. The kit is compatible from 8" to 16" Dobsonian.
(1) You can push Dobsonian to an unknown but interested target and track it all the time.
(2) You can use goto to find the planned target.
(3) You can center the target in the eyepece smoothly with electric micro motion.
(4) You can adjust the eyepiece focus in tracking electrically.
(5) The system still works like a push to system without gears and motors.
