Review of the Celestron CPC 1100 - A BIG Catadioptric!
It's been a while since I've played with a big Schmidt-Cassegrain. See if this telescope is right for you!
I can't believe I didn't use the recessed handle! I've since set the scope up a few more times, and have concluded 1) The handle definitely helps, and 2) Don't get too overconfident, as the OTA assembly still weighs ~65 lbs.
Midway through the review period, the mount started behaving erratically. A factory reset and update on the hand controller fixed the problem.
