Contact: James Yoder (jty.Astro@ArtCentrics.com)
This unit is in near new condition. This is a great beginner telescope reasonably priced and with your smart phone added to the system you have a push-to system where directional arrows on the telephone application show you where to point your telescope. This makes locating objects much easier than other methods like star-hopping. The learning curve on this telescope is probably the best of all beginner telescopes. I highly recommend this scope for someone who wants to experiment with astronomy, but not ready to shell out thousands for a higher end telescope.
